P. v. Meneese CA2/1
A jury convicted defendant and appellant Jamar Meneese of multiple offenses for his involvement in a home invasion robbery in which he pistol-whipped three different victims. In this appeal, he contends that there was insufficient evidence to sustain his conviction for aggravated mayhem (Pen. Code, § 205) because the evidence did not show that he specifically intended to inflict a permanent disfiguring injury on one of his victims. He also argues that the trial court violated his right to due process by allowing the prosecutor to cross-examine him regarding specific details of prior crimes. We affirm, but we remand the case to the trial court for resentencing in light of the enactment of Senate Bill No. 620 (2017-2018 Reg. Sess.) (Senate Bill No. 620) and Senate Bill No. 1393 (2017-2018 Reg. Sess.) (Senate Bill No. 1393).
