P. v .Elliot
Tyrone Elliott was convicted of petty theft with prior theft convictions and sentenced to two years in prison. In his appeal, he contends that his federal constitutional jury trial rights under Apprendi v. New Jersey (2000) 530 U.S. 466 (Apprendi) were violated because the trial court, not the jury, determined the issue of his identification as the defendant who suffered the prior theft convictions. Court reject this argument. Elliott also personally filed two petitions for writ of habeas corpus. Court deny these petitions and affirm the judgment.
