P. v. Hill CA2/3
Defendant Sydney Jean Hill petitioned the trial court for resentencing under the Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act, commonly known as Proposition 47. After a hearing, the court reduced Hill’s drug conviction to a misdemeanor, but denied Hill’s request to reduce the stolen property conviction from a felony to a misdemeanor. In a prior opinion, we affirmed the court’s order. (People v. Hill (Mar. 28, 2016, B262390 [nonpub. opn.].) The California Supreme Court granted Hill’s petition for review and deferred briefing pending its decision in People v. Romanowski (2017) 2 Cal.5th 903 (Romanowski). (People v. Hill (Aug. 16, 2017, No. S234180).) After issuing Romanowski, the Supreme Court transferred Hill’s case back to us for reconsideration in light of that opinion. Having reconsidered Hill’s claims on appeal, we again affirm the trial court’s order denying her Proposition 47 petition.
