P. v. Hart
Defendant appeals from a judgment of conviction entered after a jury found him guilty of possession of a controlled substance, transportation of a controlled substance and driving without a license. Following his conviction, the trial court found true the allegations that defendant suffered a prior conviction of a serious or violent felony, five prior convictions for which he served prison terms, and a prior conviction of a drug-related offense. The trial court sentenced defendant to the upper term of 5 years for transportation of a controlled substance, doubled as a second strike to 10 years, with an additional 3 years for the prior conviction of a drug-related offense. It stayed sentence on the remaining charges and enhancements. On appeal, defendant claims error in the admission of irrelevant and prejudicial evidence and in the imposition of the upper term sentence. Court rejected his claims of error and affirmed the judgment.
