P. v. Lacy CA3
A jury convicted defendant Rochelle Lee Lacy of unlawfully taking or driving a vehicle (Veh. Code, § 10851), receiving a stolen vehicle (Pen. Code, § 496d, subd. (a)), and felony identity theft (§ 530.5, subd. (a)), and in a bifurcated proceeding, sustained a strike allegation (§ 667, subds. (c), (e)(1)). The trial court sentenced defendant to a six-year state prison term, consecutive to a one-year term for a subordinate offense from another case.
On appeal, defendant contends she cannot be convicted of both stealing and receiving the same vehicle, her conviction for receiving a stolen vehicle should be reduced to a misdemeanor in light of Proposition 47, the Safe Neighborhood and Schools Act, and her felony sentence for unlawfully taking or driving a vehicle was unauthorized in light of Proposition 47. The Attorney General identifies errors in the abstract.
