P. v. Gallaghan
On March 26, 2006, a California Highway Patrol Officer conducted a traffic stop on defendant Elaine Sue Gallaghan for speeding. Defendant was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol. During a search of defendant’s car, an officer found a baggie of methamphetamine in a coin purse in defendant’s bag.
Defendant pled no contest to possession of methamphetamine (Health & Saf. Code, § 11377, subd. (a)). The trial court sentenced defendant to two years in state prison, suspended imposition of sentence, and placed her on five years’ Proposition 36 probation subject to various conditions, including the payment of certain fines and fees.
