P. v. Cardona
Jorge Cardona (appellant) appeals from the trial courts denial of his demurrer to the allegations contained in both charged offenses that the firearm found on his person was not registered to him. After denial of his demurrer and a court trial, appellant was convicted of carrying a loaded firearm that was not registered to him in violation of Penal Code section 12031, subdivision (a)(1)[1] (count 1) and of having a concealed firearm, not registered to him, on his person in violation of section 12025, subdivision (a)(2). Appellant admitted the allegation that he was out on bail or on his own recognizance within the meaning of section 12022.1 when he committed the offenses. The trial court sentenced appellant to the midterm of two years in count 1, suspended execution of sentence, and placed appellant on formal probation for a period of three years under terms and conditions of probation, which included serving 60 days in jail (time served). The trial court stayed the sentence on count 2 pursuant to section 654. The trial court also stayed a two year sentence on the out on bail allegation.
