P. v. Martinez CA4/2
Following a conviction for first degree murder and attempted premeditated murder (Pen. Code, §§ 187, subd. (a), 664), Daniel Emanuel Martinez received a sentence of 22 years 4 months plus 50 years to life in prison. Martinez raises one claim on appeal, that the trial court erred in denying his Batson/Wheeler motion after the prosecutor peremptorily excused three Hispanic prospective jurors. The trial court denied the motion, concluding Martinez had failed to make a prima facie showing of discrimination. We agree and affirm.
