P. v. Spani CA4/1
A jury convicted Gregory Allen Spani of possessing methamphetamine for sale in violation of Health and Safety Code section 11378. As part of his sentence, the court imposed a $50 criminal laboratory analysis fee (lab fee) under section 11372.5, subdivision (a), plus penalty assessments on that fee—bringing the total amount of the lab fee to $205.
Spani concedes the court properly assessed the $50 lab fee, but contends the court erred in concluding the penalty statutes applied to require an additional penalty on top of that fee. He raises no other issue on appeal.
