P. v. Jackson CA1/2
In 2017, defendant Keijona Michael Jackson pleaded no contest to two counts of possessing methamphetamine for sale and was sentenced to a split sentence consisting of two years in county jail and four years of mandatory supervision, which sentence included a three-year enhancement based on a previous conviction for methamphetamine possession for sale. In October, the Governor signed legislation eliminating the three-year enhancement for Jackson’s previous conviction with an effective date of January 1, 2018. Jackson moved to strike the enhancement, arguing that he was entitled to the retroactive benefit of the new legislation, and the trial court denied the motion and reinstated Jackson’s mandatory supervision. We affirm.
