P. v. Wright CA4/2
Pursuant to a plea agreement, defendant and appellant Anthony Dean Wright pled guilty to theft from an elder or dependent adult. (Pen. Code, § 368, subd. (d).) The parties stipulated that the police reports provided a factual basis for the plea. In accordance with the agreement, a trial court sentenced defendant to two years in state prison.
Defendant filed a petition for resentencing, pursuant to section 1170.18 (Proposition 47). The court found him ineligible for relief and denied the petition. Defendant appealed from the denial of his petition, arguing that the failure to apply Proposition 47 to his conviction violated his equal protection rights. In our original opinion, we agreed with the trial court’s decision.
