P. v. Alvarez
A jury found defendant Paul Alonzo Alvarez guilty of making a criminal threat (Pen. Code, 422)and carrying a loaded firearm in a public place by a nonregistered owner ( 12031, subd. (a)(2)(F)). Defendant was sentenced to a total term of two years in state prison. On appeal, defendant contends (1) there was insufficient evidence to sustain his conviction for making a criminal threat, and (2) the trial court prejudicially erred when it failed to sua sponte instruct the jury on the lesser included offense of attempted criminal threat. Court reject these contentions and affirm the judgment.
