P. v. Romero
Defendant and appellant Steven Romero (defendant) appeals from his murder conviction. He contends that the trial court erred in denying three Wheeler/Batson[1] motions and in the use of CALJIC Nos. 3.00, 3.01, and 3.02 to instruct the jury. In addition, defendant contends that the jury’s findings of guilt and gang motive were not supported by substantial evidence and the cumulative effect of instructional error requires reversal of the judgment. Defendant also asks that we modify the abstract of judgment by striking the sentence enhancement imposed under Penal Code section 667, subdivision (a)(1).[2] We find no merit in defendant’s contentions and affirm the judgment. We also direct the trial court to correct clerical errors in the abstract of judgment.
