P. v. Greenlee CA4/2
On March 6, 2017, defendant and appellant Christopher Greenlee filed an in propria persona petition pursuant to Proposition 47 (Pen. Code, § 1170.18, subds. (b) & (g)) to reduce his October 14, 1992, burglary conviction under Penal Code section 459 to a misdemeanor conviction under Penal Code section 459.5. On March 16, 2017, the People filed an opposition to defendant’s petition requesting a hearing on the value of the property taken.
On March 28, 2017, the trial court denied defendant’s petition because his conviction for residential burglary under Penal Code sections 459 and 460 made defendant ineligible under Proposition 47. The court noted: “Denied—defendant pled guilty to 1st degree burglary—not eligible for relief.”
