P. v. Longorio
Daniel Longorio was charged with multiple counts of home invasion robbery, burglary, false imprisonment, possession of a firearm by a felon and escape, with allegations of personal use of a firearm, commission of crimes while on parole, and prior convictions and prison terms. He successfully moved to represent himself at trial, but was less successful in his exercise of that right. A jury convicted him of all charges and found the allegations true, and the court sentenced Longorio to 198 years to life in prison. On appeal, Longorio argues his waiver of representation was not knowing and intelligent because the court did not accurately inform him of the maximum penalty he faced or adequately inform him of the nature of the charges against him. We find no error and affirm, but order a correction in the abstract of judgment.
