P. v. Dellarusso
A jury convicted defendant Jennifer Alice Dellarusso of felony vandalism with a finding the damage exceeded $400. She admitted serving a prior prison term (Pen. Code, § 667.5, subd. (b)) and the trial court sentenced her to 3 years in prison, but directed she serve 6 months in county jail and the remainder of the term on mandatory supervision. She appeals claiming the trial court erred by (1) denying a motion to discharge appointed counsel (People v. Marsden (1970) 2 Cal.3d 118; Marsden motion), and (2) ruling the prosecution could impeach a potential defense witness with evidence of the conduct underlying a pending drug trafficking criminal charge. Finding no error, we affirm the judgment.
