P. v. Perez CA6
This case is before us for a second time, after the California Supreme Court transferred it back to this court with directions to reconsider in light of the recent opinion in People v. Page (2017) 3 Cal.5th 1175 (Page).
In December 2014, defendant Lauren Perez pleaded guilty to two felony offenses: unlawfully driving or taking a vehicle (Veh. Code, § 10851, subd. (a); count 1) and buying or receiving a stolen motor vehicle (Pen. Code, § 496d, subd. (a); count 2). Defendant admitted she had a prior conviction that qualified as a “strike” (§§ 667, subds. (b)-(i), 1170.12) and admitted that she had served a prior prison term (§ 667.5, subd. (b)). The trial court subsequently dismissed the strike allegation, struck the prior prison term allegation, suspended imposition of sentence, and placed defendant on probation for three years.
