P. v. Orman CA6
This appeal concerns the scope of the Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act (Cal. Const., art. II, § 10, subd. (a)) (Proposition 47). At issue is whether Proposition 47 applies to the offenses of unlawfully driving or taking a vehicle (Veh. Code, § 10851, subd. (a)) and buying or receiving a stolen motor vehicle (Pen. Code, § 496d, subd. (a)) . We conclude that it does not apply to either. We also reject defendant Brent Orman’s contention that the trial court was required to grant him leave to amend his Proposition 47 petitions despite his admitted failure to carry his burden to demonstrate entitlement to relief. We shall affirm the orders disposing of defendant’s Proposition 47 petitions without prejudice to defendant filing subsequent petitions supported by evidence entitling him to relief.
