P. v. Lucas CA4/1
Miguel J. Lucas pled guilty to one count of possession of a firearm by a felon in violation of Penal Code section 29800, subdivision (a)(1). He was granted two years of formal probation and ordered to serve a term of 365 days in local custody with credit for time served. Among other conditions of Lucas’s probation, the court required him to submit to warrantless searches of his “person, vehicle, residence, property, personal effects, computers, and recordable media including electronic devices.”
Lucas asserts the electronic search condition is unreasonable under People v. Lent (1975) 15 Cal.3d 481 (Lent) because it has no relationship to the crime of which Lucas was convicted and is not reasonably related to future criminality. We conclude Lucas has forfeited this claim by failing to raise it in the trial court. Lucas further asks us to vacate any unpaid portion of the $154 criminal justice administration fee imposed under the recently repealed Government Code section 29550.1.
