P. v. Lopez CA6
Defendant Daniel Rene Lopez pleaded no contest to one count of transportation, sale, or distribution of GHB and one count of possessing methamphetamine for sale (§ 11378). Defendant also admitted allegations that he possessed 28.5 grams or more of methamphetamine and had a prior drug conviction. The trial court imposed a split sentence of six years eight months with the first four years to be served in jail and the remaining two years eight months to be served under mandatory supervision. On appeal, defendant challenges a condition of his mandatory supervision that provides that his electronic devices, including his cell phones, computers, laptop computers, and notepads are subject to search and forensic analysis, and that requires him to provide passcodes to conduct those searches. He contends the condition is unreasonable under People v. Lent (1975) 15 Cal.3d 481 (Lent) and is unconstitutionally overbroad. We reject defendant’s challenge under Lent.
