P. v. Jones
Defendant Ellis T. California Jones III appeals after he was resentenced following a prior appeal.[1] At the resentencing proceeding, which was conducted without defendant or a defense attorney present, the trial court reduced the previously-imposed prison term by eight months, and it reduced the amount of victim restitution by $400.
Defendant, who had represented himself in the earlier trial proceedings, contends the trial court erred by conducting the resentencing proceeding without him or the presence of an attorney on his behalf. For reasons that we will explain, we will affirm the judgment.
