DIVISION ONE
THE PEOPLE, Plaintiff and Respondent, v. DWIGHT WILLIAMS, Defendant and Appellant. | A110287 (San Francisco County Super. Ct. No. 2180240) |
Following a jury trial defendant was convicted of assault by means of force likely to produce great bodily injury (Pen. Code, § 245, subd. (a)(1)),[1] and battery with serious bodily injury (§ 243, subd. (d)), with an associated enhancement for personal infliction of great bodily injury upon the victim (§ 12022.7, subd. (a)). The trial court then found that defendant served a prior prison term for a conviction on March 6, 1997, within the meaning of section 667.5, subdivision (b).[2] In this appeal defendant complains of the trial court's failure to grant his motion for substitution of appointed counsel, and challenges the evidence to support the prior prison term finding. We conclude that the court did not err by denying defendant's Marsden motion,[3] and adequate admissible evidence supports the prior prison term finding. We therefore affirm the judgment.
