P. v. Silva
Following the theft of a computer from his workplace, defendant Joe Gualberto Silva was charged by information with second degree commercial burglary and grand theft. (Pen. Code, §§ 459, 487, subd. (a).)[1] A jury found defendant guilty of both charged offenses. Sentenced to two years in state prison and ordered to pay restitution, defendant appeals, arguing the court erred in allowing the trial to proceed in his absence, ineffective assistance of counsel, evidentiary error, and sentencing error. We shall remand for modification of defendant’s sentence; in all other respects, we shall affirm the judgment.
