P. v. Brown
James Herbert Brown, III appeals his conviction, by jury, of possession of cocaine for sale. (Health & Safety Code, 11351.) The jury further found that appellant committed the offense for the benefit of a criminal street gang. (Pen. Code, 186.22, subd. (b)(1)(A).) It was unable to reach a verdict on the other alleged offense, possession of a firearm by an ex-felon. ( 12021.) The trial court sentenced appellant to a term in state prison of seven years. He contends the trial court erred when it denied his motion to suppress evidence of the cocaine on the ground that appellant lacked standing to challenge the search. He further contends the trial court erred when it ruled that any statements he made at the hearing on the motion to suppress would be admissible at trial and that the gang enhancement is not supported by substantial evidence. Court affirm.
