P. v. Campbell-Loya CA1/3
This is an appeal from judgment after a jury convicted defendant Phoenix Campbell-Loya of assault with a deadly weapon and carrying a concealed dirk or dagger. Defendant challenges this judgment on the grounds that the trial court incorrectly instructed the jury in connection with his primary theory of self-defense, and that his trial attorney rendered ineffective assistance in violation of his constitutional right to counsel by failing to request an instruction permitting the jury to consider a third party’s prior assault or threats reasonably associated with the victim when evaluating defendant’s use of force against the victim. We affirm.
