P. v. Hays CA3
Defendant Jessica Hays pleaded no contest to unlawful sexual intercourse and furnishing marijuana to a minor. The trial court granted defendant probation for three years, ordered her to pay various fines and fees, and ordered her to register as a sex offender pursuant to Penal Code section 290.006.
On appeal, defendant contends the order to register should be reversed because the trial court failed to find she “posed a risk of re-offense” and failed “to state its reasons for such a conclusion on the record.” We conclude defendant forfeited her right to challenge the registration order on these grounds.
Defendant further contends the trial court erred in imposing penalty assessments on the mandatory laboratory fee. Based on a recent Supreme Court case, there was no error. Accordingly, we affirm the judgment.
