P. v. Quiroz
A jury convicted defendant Ivan Quiroz of burglary (Pen. Code, § 459), finding the burglary was in the first degree because defendant entered an inhabited dwelling with the intent to commit larceny.[1] Quiroz was sentenced to the upper term of six years in state prison.
Defendant contends on appeal that the trial court erred by admitting testimony by a fingerprint expert that her analysis had been verified by two other forensic analysts in her laboratory, in violation of his Sixth Amendment right to confront adverse witnesses. Because we conclude any error in admitting the testimony was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt, we affirm the judgment.
