P. v. Gleason CA6
Defendant John Wessley Gleason was convicted by jury trial of felony possession of an assault weapon (Pen. Code, § 30510, subd. (a)(11)). The trial court refused to reduce the conviction to a misdemeanor under section 17, subdivision (b) and placed defendant on felony probation. On appeal, defendant contends that prohibiting him from possessing an assault weapon violates his Second Amendment rights, and he asserts that the trial court abused its discretion in refusing to reduce his conviction to a misdemeanor. We reject both of his contentions and affirm the court’s order of probation.
