P. v. Cooper
On August 25, 2010, appellant Anthony Dewayne Cooper, Jr., was charged in an information with receiving stolen property (Pen. Code, § 496, subd. (a)).[1] The information also alleged four prior prison term enhancements (§ 667.5, subd. (b)). Cooper filed a suppression motion pursuant to section 1538.5. The trial court conducted a lengthy hearing on Cooper’s motion in late October and early November 2010. On November 4, 2010, the trial court denied Cooper’s suppression motion.
After the beginning of a jury trial, Cooper waived his constitutional rights pursuant to Boykin/Tahl[2] and pled no contest to the charge.[3] Cooper also admitted the special allegations. On February 1, 2011, the trial court suspended imposition of sentence, placed appellant on probation for three years, and ordered appellant to serve 253 days in jail with credit for time served.
On appeal, Cooper contends the trial court erred in denying his suppression motion. We disagree and affirm the trial court’s judgment.
