P. v. Taylor CA2/4
A jury convicted defendant and appellant, Edwin Vincent Taylor II, of one count of making criminal threats (Pen. Code, § 422, subd. (a)). The trial court imposed a suspended sentence of one year in county jail and placed defendant on formal probation for a period of three years.
On appeal, defendant contends: (1) substantial evidence does not support his conviction; (2) the trial court prejudicially erred by failing to sua sponte instruct the jury on the lesser included offense of attempted criminal threats; (3) the trial court prejudicially erred by admitting testimony from the victim’s mother; and (4) cumulative error requires reversal of his conviction. We reject defendant’s contentions and affirm the judgment.
