P. v. Romero
It was alleged in an information filed April 27, 2007, that appellant Luis Romero was in possession of a weapon while confined in a penal institution (Pen. Code, 4502), subdivision (a), and that he had suffered a strike.[1] Pursuant to a plea agreement, on June 26, 2007, appellant pled no contest to a lesser offense, viz., manufacture of a weapon while confined in a penal institution (Pen. Code, 4502, subd. (b)), and admitted the strike allegation. Immediately thereafter, appellant requested immediate sentencing and the court imposed a four-year prison term, consisting of the two-year midterm on the substantive offense, doubled pursuant to the three strikes law (Pen. Code, 667, subd. (e)(1); 1170.12, subd. (c)(1)). The court ordered the term to run consecutively to the term appellant was serving at the time of the instant offense. The judgment is affirmed.
