P. v. Simpson
Defendant Marcus Kashawn Simpson appeals from the judgment entered following a jury trial in which he was convicted of receiving stolen property (L.A. Superior Court case No. GA074149), and the judgments entered after he pleaded no contest to charges of burglary, robbery, battery, and violation of civil rights in earlier cases. Defendant contends that in case No. GA074149, the trial court erred by failing to mention receiving stolen property within its instruction on the union of act and intent (CALCRIM No. 251). He also argues his trial attorney rendered ineffective assistance by failing to request CALCRIM No. 373, regarding uncharged accomplices. Defendant further argues that if this court reverses his conviction in case No. GA074149, we should also reverse the judgments following revocation of his probation in his earlier cases, which were premised upon his receiving stolen property conviction. Court affirm.
