P. v. Walker CA2/4
Jamel Walker appeals from the denial of his petition to recall his sentence under Proposition 47 (Pen. Code, § 1170.18), which reduced certain theft-related and drug-related felonies to misdemeanors. In August 2014, appellant pled guilty to one count of second degree commercial burglary (§ 459) and admitted one prior strike (§§ 667, subds. (b)-(i), 1170.12, subds. (a)-(d)). After Proposition 47 was passed in November 2014, appellant filed a petition alleging that his conviction should be reduced to a misdemeanor because the value of the property he took did not exceed $950.
