P. v. Pray CA6
In January 2011, defendant Eric James Pray pleaded guilty to felony receiving stolen property and felony possession of oxycodone. The trial court suspended imposition of sentence and placed defendant on probation for three years. In July 2016, defendant filed a petition to have both convictions redesignated as misdemeanors pursuant to Proposition 47. The trial court granted defendant’s petition as to the oxycodone possession count but denied it as to the receiving stolen property count.
On appeal, defendant contends the trial court erred by denying his petition for redesignation of his receiving stolen property conviction, claiming that the trial court erred by concluding that the value of the stolen property—a check written for $2,200—exceeded $950. Defendant requests an evidentiary hearing where he can present evidence that the stolen check’s value was less than $950. For reasons that we will explain, we will affirm the trial court’s order.
