P. v. Flores CA2/5
Defendant Luis Jorge Flores, Jr. was convicted by a jury of attempted carjacking, a felony. (Pen. Code, §§ 215, subd. (a), 664.) The jury further found defendant personally used a deadly weapon, a knife, in the commission of the offense. (§ 12022, subd. (b)(1).) Defendant admitted a prior serious felony conviction allegation for purposes of section 667, subdivision (a)(1), and the Three Strikes law as set forth in sections 667, subdivisions (b) through (i) and 1170.12, subdivisions (a) through (e). He also admitted a section 667.5, subdivision (b) prior separate prison term allegation. The trial court imposed a 12-year state prison sentence.
On appeal, defendant argues the trial court’s denial of his Romero motion to dismiss his prior strike conviction was an abuse of discretion.
