P. v. Banks CA5
At the conclusion of a jury trial, defendant Stephanie Banks was convicted of assault with a deadly weapon (Pen. Code, § 245, subd. (a)(1); count 1), domestic violence (§ 273.5, subd. (a); count 2), and obstructing a peace officer (§ 148, subd. (a)(1); count 3). The jury also found true enhancements alleging that Banks personally inflicted great bodily injury (§ 12022.7, subd. (e)) on the victim in counts 1 and 2, and personally used a weapon in count 2 (§ 12022, subd. (b)(1)). In a bifurcated proceeding, the trial court found true allegations that Banks had a prior serious felony conviction (§ 667, subd. (a)) and a prior strike within the meaning of the three strikes law (§§ 667, subds. (c)-(j) & 1170.12, subds. (a)-(e)), both based on a prior conviction for robbery (§ 212.5, subd. (b)).
