P. v. Williams
Sheriffs deputies executed a search warrant at a residence and found Patrick James Williams and Ricky Lamar Stubbs, collectively referred to as defendants, along with 74.4 grams of cocaine base, digital scales, and packaging materials. The sum of $2,093 in cash was found in Williamss car. After a jury trial, the defendants were convicted of drug offenses, and Williams was sentenced to an aggregate term of seven years in prison, while defendant Stubbs was granted probation. Both defendants appealed. On appeal, defendant Stubbs seeks review of the sealed transcript of an in camera hearing conducted pursuant to his trial motion for disclosure of the identity of the confidential informant, whose information provided the basis for the search warrant. The People agree we should review the sealed transcript, and we have done so, finding no error. Defendant Williams has filed a brief in accordance with the procedures outlined in People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.
Court affirm.
