P. v. Moran
Defendant and appellant Reynaldo Moran pled guilty to inflicting corporal injury on a spouse/cohabitant (Pen. Code, 273.5, subd. (a))and was placed on three years probation. The trial court later found that he violated a term of his probation prohibiting him from possessing or consuming alcoholic beverages. The court revoked defendants probation and sentenced him to the upper term of four years in state prison. Defendants sole contention on appeal is that the sentence violates his Sixth Amendment right to trial by jury under Blakely v. Washington (2004) 542 U.S. 296 (Blakely). Court disagree and affirm.
