P. v. Souza CA3
A jury convicted defendant David Arnold Souza on 21 counts of theft by false pretenses and found true various enhancement allegations. The trial court sentenced him to 18 years in prison.
Defendant now contends (1) there was insufficient evidence to support his convictions on 11 of the 21 counts, (2) the trial court should have imposed only one Penal Code section 186.11 sentencing enhancement, and (3) he is entitled to additional presentence credit.
We conclude the evidence is sufficient to support the convictions, but we will modify the judgment to strike the imposed but stayed section 186.11, subdivision (a)(3) enhancement and to award additional presentence credit. We will affirm the judgment as modified.
