P. v. Stewart
Defendant Elbert Bernard Stewart was convicted by a jury of assault with a deadly weapon with the personal infliction of great bodily injury (Pen. Code, 245, subd. (a)(1);[1]12022.7, subd. (a)), attempting to dissuade a witness ( 664/136.1, subd. (a)(2)), and soliciting the commission of a crime ( 653f, subd. (a)). He was sentenced to 14 years in prison. He appeals, contending that his right to due process was violated when he was shackled during trial, the trial court erred in admitting evidence of an uncharged assault, and the cumulative effect of these errors requires reversal. Court affirm the judgment.
