P. v. Quintanar
A jury convicted defendant Jesse Anthony Quintanar of one count of robbery with personal use of a knife. (Pen. Code, §§ 211, 12022, subd. (b)(1).) Defendant waived jury trial and admitted four prior strike convictions (§§ 1170.12, 667, subds. (b)-(i)), and four five-year serious felony priors (§ 667, subd. (a)(1)), and that he had served four prior prison terms. (§ 667.5, subd. (b).) After denying defendant’s motion to strike his prior convictions pursuant to section 1385, the court sentenced appellant to a total term of 38 years to life, consisting of 25 years to life for the robbery under the Three Strikes Law, one year for the weapon use, 10 years for two serious felony priors, and two years for two prior prison terms. The court stayed two five-year priors and two prior prison terms. It dismissed two strikes at the prosecution’s request.
