P. v. Boardman
Defendant appeals from the judgment entered following his no contest pleas to possession of methamphetamine and petty theft with a prior theft conviction. Appellant admitted that he had served two prior separate prison terms and had been previously convicted of a serious felony within the meaning of California's "Three Strikes" law. The strike was a prior conviction of battery with serious bodily injury. Appellant contends that, as a matter of law, a conviction of this offense does not qualify as a strike. Therefore, he argues, the doubling of the middle terms was unauthorized. The appeal is dismissed.
