P. v. Stryker
A jury found defendant Sterling Joseph Stryker guilty of being a past-convicted felon in possession of a firearm (Pen. Code, 12021), and possession of a controlled substance while armed with a firearm (Health & Saf. Code, 11350, subd. (a); Pen. Code, 12022, subd. (a)(1)). The trial court found true an allegation that defendant had a prior felony conviction that qualified as a strike under Californias Three Strikes Law (Pen. Code, 1170.12.) After the trial denied court defendants motion to strike the prior conviction under People v. Superior Court (Romero) (1996) 13 Cal.4th 497 (Romero), it sentenced him to state prison for a total term of seven years.
