P. v. Wilkinson
Defendant Todd Martin Wilkinson pled no contest to failing to register as a sex offender and admitted he had served two prior prison terms. The trial court sentenced him to state prison for five years, suspended execution of said sentence, and placed him on probation. Defendant appeals, contending the condition of his probation that he enroll in and successfully participate in a program of sex offender specific therapy should be stricken as invalid. We dismiss the appeal as moot.
As a result of defendant’s 1997 conviction for rape, he is required to register as a sex offender pursuant to Penal Code section 290. On September 26, 2011, he was charged with failure to register as required. It was also alleged he had served two prior prison terms and had a prior strike conviction.
