P. v. Foster CA3
The issue on appeal makes it unnecessary to provide the underlying substantive facts of defendant’s offense. It suffices to say that an August 2017 information alleged that defendant (1) evaded a peace officer in a motor vehicle with wanton disregard for the safety of others (Veh. Code, § 2800.2, subd. (a)) and (2) suffered a prior strike conviction within the meaning of Penal Code section 1170.12, subdivision (b).
In November 2017, defendant waived her right to a jury trial on the prior strike allegation. Defense counsel told the trial court that defendant “[was] willing to waive jury for the strike portion.” The trial court addressed defendant: “[Defendant], you have a right to have a jury trial on the allegation that -- on the issue where the People say you have a prior serious felony strike conviction.
