P. v. Edmonds CA3
This appeal comes to us pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436. We affirm defendant’s conviction.
An amended information filed May 25, 2016, charged defendant Mark Joseph Edmonds with four counts of assault with a deadly weapon (counts one through four; Pen. Code, § 245, subd. (a)(1)) and alleged he served three prior prison terms (§ 667.5, subd. (b)).
A jury convicted defendant on count two, but could not reach a verdict on the other three counts, as to which the trial court declared a mistrial. Defendant waived his right to jury trial on the priors and admitted them.
The People thereafter agreed to dismiss counts one, three, and four with a Harvey waiver. (People v. Harvey (1979) 25 Cal.3d 754.)
