P. v. Swinger
A jury found defendant guilty of one count of burglary (Pen. Code, 459)[1]and one count of using or passing a counterfeit bill ( 476). Defendant thereafter admitted that she had sustained two prior prison terms ( 667.5, subd. (b)). As a result, defendant was sentenced to a total term of four years in state prison. Defendants sole contention on appeal is that Judicial Council of California Criminal Jury Instructions (CALCRIM) No. 220, which defines reasonable doubt, is erroneous because it does not define abiding conviction. Court reject this contention and affirm the judgment.
