P. v. Falls
On December 13, 2005, a jury found (appellant) guilty of the April 2001 murder (Pen. Code, 187, subd. (a)) of Elmo Jackson. Appellant was also convicted of being a felon in possession of a handgun ( 12021.1), and an allegation that appellant personally discharged a firearm in the commission of the murder ( 12022.53, subd. (d)) was found true. In a bifurcated proceeding, the trial court found appellant had two prior serious felony convictions. Appellant, a third striker, was sentenced to 100 years to life.
On appeal, appellant contends only that the trial court erred in denying his December 6, 2005, motion for a continuance of trial. Court disagree and affirm.
