P. v. Wilkins
Defendant was convicted by jury trial of failing to reregister as a sex offender within five days of changing his address (Pen. Code, 290, subd. (a)(1)(A)) in August 2004, and of failing to update his sex offender registration within five days of his birthday (Pen. Code, 290, subd. (a)(1)(D)) in January 2005. The court found true allegations that defendant had suffered three prior serious felony convictions (Pen. Code, 667, subds. (b)-(i), 1170.12) and served three prison terms for prior felony convictions (Pen. Code, 667.5, subd. (b)). The court imposed a state prison term of four years. On appeal, defendants sole contention is that the trial court prejudicially erred in failing to instruct sua sponte on mistake of fact. Court find no prejudicial error and affirm the judgment.
