P. v. Williams
A jury found defendant Melvin Eugene Williams guilty of first degree robbery (Pen. Code, 211)[1]and assault with a firearm ( 245, subd. (a)(2)), and found firearm use enhancements ( 12022.5, subd. (a)(1), 12022.53, subd. (b)), to be true with respect to each count. After the trial court found that he had sustained a prior strike felony conviction, it imposed an aggregate state prison sentence of 30 years four months.
Seeking reversal, defendant claims that the trial court erred in denying his motion to suppress evidence, improperly denied him a reasonable continuance upon granting his motions for self-representation, and committed various sentencing errors. Except for a minor custody credit claim, we find none of his contentions meritorious and shall affirm the judgment.
