P. v. Telles
A jury found defendant Nolan Ryan Telles guilty of several crimes, and found he had a prior strike (first-degree burglary) and committed certain offenses while on bail. The trial court sentenced defendant to prison for eight years and eight months. Defendant timely appealed.
On appeal, defendant first contends the trial court erred in joining two of his cases and denying his motion to sever certain counts. He further claims prejudicial evidence that he had been in jail was introduced, no substantial evidence supports one count, the trial court erred in denying his motion to strike the strike, and error in the abstract of judgment, a point conceded by the People. We reverse Count 2 for lack of evidence and modify the sentence to account for this reversal.
