P. v. Palmathier CA3
Defendant Robert Hamilton Palmatier pleaded no contest to unlawful use of another person’s personal identifying information (Pen. Code, § 530.5, subd. (a)) and admitted he had a prior serious felony conviction within the meaning of the three strikes law (§ 667, subds. (c) & (e)(1)) (strike prior). On appeal, he contends the trial court abused its discretion by denying his request to dismiss his strike prior. We conclude the trial court had no authority to dismiss the strike prior. Accordingly, we affirm the judgment.
