P. v. Beltran
In this appeal, defendant and appellant, Louis P. Beltran (hereafter defendant), challenges the 54-year sentence the trial court imposed after a jury found him guilty as charged of two counts of kidnapping in violation of Penal Code section 207, subdivision (a)[1](counts 1 & 2); one count of assault with a firearm in violation of section 245, subdivision (a)(2) (count 3); one count of attempted robbery in violation of sections 664 and 211 (count 4); one count of burglary in violation of section 459 (count 5); and one count of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon in violation of section 12021, subdivision (a)(1) (count 6). The jury also found true firearm use, a prior serious felony conviction, and prior prison term enhancements. Court recount the details of the sentence in our discussion of defendants claims on appeal.
