P. v. Kurtz
Defendant Morris Kurtz entered a no contest plea to possession for sale of a controlled substance, possession of ammunition by a convicted felon, and possession of a nunchaku. He also admitted two prison prior enhancements. The court sentenced him to serve a two-year prison term, consecutive to a nine-year sentence he was serving in a case filed in Alameda County.
Defendant on appeal challenges the court’s imposition of penalty assessments on two levies made by the court. The two levies were a criminal laboratory analysis fee (see Health & Saf. Code, § 11372.5; hereafter crime-lab fee), and a drug program fee (see § 11372.7). He argues that the crime-lab fee and drug program fee constituted administrative fees upon which the imposition of penalty assessments was improper. We conclude there was no error and will affirm the judgment.
