P. v. Mason
Lloyd Harvey Mason pleaded no contest to charges of possessing methamphetamine for sale, possessing concentrated cannabis, and being a felon in possession of a firearm. He asks us to review sealed materials related to his motions to quash and traverse a search warrant in order to determine whether the trial court erred when it refused to disclose the identity of a confidential informant on whom the police relied. We have reviewed all the materials in the record and find no grounds for disturbing the trial court’s rulings.
Mason also challenges the trial court’s order that he serve his entire sentence in state prison, even though the sentence included a longer term for a county jail offense and a shorter concurrent term for a state prison offense. We construe the 2011 Realignment Legislation[1] as mandating state prison for the entire sentence in this situation, consistent with our recent decision in People v. Torres (2013) 213 Cal.App.4th 1151 (Torres). We affirm the judgment.
