P. v. Morgan CA1/5
Hosea Morgan (appellant) appeals from an order placing him on felony probation after a jury convicted him of five felony counts arising from a fraudulent workers’ compensation claim: insurance fraud in violation of Penal Code section 550, subdivision (b)(1), insurance fraud in violation of Insurance Code section 1871.4, subdivision (a)(1), grand theft of personal property in violation of Penal Code section 487, subdivision (a), presentation of a fraudulent claim in violation of Penal Code section 72, and perjury in violation of Penal Code section 118. He contends the judgment must be reversed because: (1) he was unfairly prejudiced by evidence that he suffered from erectile dysfunction because the jury had been shown a surveillance video in which he was physically affectionate with a woman who was not his wife; and (2) the court placed undue pressure on the jury to reach a verdict. We affirm.
