P. v. Springer CA1/1
Defendant Travis Springer pleaded guilty to sexual abuse of a minor and was sentenced to 12 years in prison. In a prior appeal, he argued that the trial court erred in failing to hold a hearing under People v. Marsden (1970) 2 Cal.3d 118 (Marsden). We agreed, and we therefore conditionally reversed the judgment and remanded for the trial court to hold such a hearing. (People v. Springer (Aug. 21, 2020, A158263) (Springer I) [nonpub. opn.].) On remand, the court held the hearing and denied the Marsden motion.
Springer appealed again, arguing that the trial court abused its discretion by refusing to continue the hearing and by denying the Marsden motion. We disagree and accordingly affirm.
