P. v. Riel
Appellant was convicted of the felony of reckless evasion of a peace officer under California Vehicle Code section 2800.2 and driving without a valid license, a misdemeanor under section 12500, subdivision (a) of the same code. He was sentenced to the aggravated term of three years for the felony. The court struck two of his 'Three Strikes' law priors for sentencing, but used the third to double his term for the reckless evasion and added another year for another prior. The resultant sentence was imprisonment for seven years.
Appellant does not complain about the conduct of his trial, so a precis of its facts is not necessary. Appellant complains only that his sentencing was improper. Court find no flaw in the sentencing that court can address, and therefore affirm the conviction in its entirety.
