P. v. Johnson
Defendant Peter Todd Johnson appeals from the judgment entered following a jury trial in which he was convicted of attempted first degree murder (Pen. Code, §§ 664, 187, subd. (a))[1] and shooting at an occupied vehicle (§ 246). Defendant contends the trial court coerced the jury into rendering a verdict by ordering continued deliberation after a deadlock was announced. He also argues that the court erred in denying his motion to substitute counsel under People v. Marsden (1970) 2 Cal.3d 118 (Marsden). We disagree and affirm.
