P. v. Devoy CA3
Defendant David Lynn Devoy appeals following conviction of possession of a gun (a Deutsche Werke 7.65 mm. semiautomatic gun) by a felon, possession of ammunition by a prohibited person, and misdemeanor resisting, delaying or obstructing a peace officer in the performance of his duties. The jury found defendant not guilty of possessing a Beretta 9 mm. handgun. The trial court placed defendant on formal probation for five years.
Defendant contends the trial court erred in denying his motion to suppress evidence and revising his proposed jury instruction on possession, and the prosecutor committed misconduct in closing argument. Defendant also asks us to review whether the trial court abused its discretion in finding no discoverable police records in response to his motion under Pitchess v. Superior Court (1974) 11 Cal.3d 531 (Pitchess). Finding no grounds for reversal, we affirm the judgment.
