P. v. Sanders CA6
On September 24, 2015, the Santa Clara County District Attorney filed an information charging Sanders with five counts of second degree robbery (Pen. Code, §§ 211, 212.5, subd. (b)). As to each count, the information alleged that Sanders personally used a handgun in committing the offense (§ 12022.53, subd. (b)). Finally, the information alleged that Sanders had two prior strike convictions, three prior serious felony convictions, and one prior prison conviction (§§ 667, subds. (b) (i), 1170.12, 667.5, subd. (b)).
Following a trial, the jury acquitted Sanders on four of the five robbery counts (counts 1 4), but found him guilty on the fifth (count 5). (§§ 211, 212.5, subd. (b).) The jury also found true that Sanders personally used a firearm in committing count 5, and in a bifurcated proceeding, found true all of the allegations relating to Sanders’s prior convictions.
