P. v. Eberhart CA1/3
Defendant Major Eberhart was sentenced to serve 91 years to life in state prison after a jury convicted him of first degree murder and other offenses. We affirmed the judgment as modified and remanded the matter for a retrial of prior conviction allegations and for resentencing. The Supreme Court granted review limited to the question of whether Eberhart’s “Sixth Amendment right to confrontation [was] violated by the gang expert’s reliance on testimony hearsay,” and deferred further action pending disposition of a related issue in People v. Sanchez, S216681. After the Supreme Court issued its opinion in People v. Sanchez (2016) 63 Cal.4th 665 (Sanchez), that court transferred Eberhart’s case back to this court for reconsideration in light of Sanchez.
