P. v. Caffin
Appellant, Mark Anthony Chaffin, appeals from the judgment imposed following his conviction by jury of first degree felony murder (Pen. Code, 187, 189; undesignated section references are to that code), carjacking ( 215, subd. (a)), robbery ( 211), and arson of property ( 451, subd. (d)). The jury further found as special circumstances that appellant committed the murder while engaged in the commission of a carjacking ( 190.2, subd. (a)(17)(L)), and a robbery ( 190.2, subd.

He was sentenced to a term of life without possibility of parole, plus five years for the prior conviction and four years for the arson. Sentences for the carjacking and robbery were stayed under section 654.
