P. v. Braganza CA4/9
Defendant Alex Jonathan Braganza pleaded guilty to possessing less than an ounce of cannabis in 2011 while in prison, in violation of Penal Code section 4573.6. In 2017 voters passed Proposition 64, decriminalizing adult possession of less than an ounce of cannabis in most situations. Defendant filed a petition in superior court requesting dismissal of his conviction under Proposition 64, which the trial court denied. On appeal, defendant argues Proposition 64’s reach includes decriminalization of cannabis possession in prison. We will affirm.
