P. v. Atkins
The jury found defendant and appellant Floyd Atkins guilty of one count of discharging a laser at an aircraft, in violation of Penal Code section 247.5.[1] It acquitted defendant of a second section 247.5 violation.
The trial court sentenced defendant to three years in county jail, two of which were suspended, to be served under mandatory supervision pursuant to section 1170, subdivision (h)(5).
Defendant contends the trial court erred in admitting prejudicial evidence of prior uncharged crimes. He also challenges the trial court’s disposition of his motion for review of the personnel records of four police officers pursuant to Pitchess v. Superior Court (1974) 11 Cal.3d 531 (Pitchess). We affirm the judgment.
