P. v. Magdaleno
Defendant appeals his convictions for evading arrest and driving with a suspended license. Defendant contends that the trial court erred in denying his request to change from self representation to counsel representation. Defendant also contends that the trial court erred in using a prior prison term as both an enhancement and an aggravating factor. Finally, he complains that his sentence is unconstitutionally excessive under Blakely v. Washington (2004) 542 U.S. 296 (Blakely). Court agree that the one-year enhancement for the prior prison term was erroneous and should be stricken. Court affirm the judgment in all other respects.
