P. v. Canfield
Robert Canfield (Canfield) appeals from a judgment of conviction and sentence imposed after a jury found him guilty of first degree burglary and first degree robbery (Pen. Code, 459, 211). He contends: (1) his due process rights were violated when the court instructed the jury, in accordance with CALCRIM No. 315, that it could consider the victims subjective certainty in identifying Canfield as a factor in evaluating the reliability of the identification; (2) the evidence was insufficient to establish that Canfield was the perpetrator; and (3) the court erred in denying his motion for a new trial. His first argument has been repeatedly rejected by California appellate courts, and his other two arguments are meritless as well. Court affirm the judgment.
