P. v. Harrell CA1/3
Defendant Joshua Neil Harrell appeals from the trial court’s denial of his motions to reduce his 2010 felony conviction for receipt of stolen property and his 2013 felony conviction for second degree commercial burglary to misdemeanors pursuant to Proposition 47, the Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act of 2014 (Proposition 47). The trial court denied both motions, concluding defendant was not eligible for relief under Proposition 47. As we explain below, it was defendant’s burden to demonstrate his eligibility for such relief, and he failed to discharge that burden. Accordingly, the trial court properly denied the motions.
