P. v. Johns CA1/5
Michael Dennis Johns, Jr., was charged in an information with two counts of felony driving under the influence with three prior convictions for driving while under the influence within the past 10 years (counts 1 and 2; Veh. Code, §§ 23152, subds. (a) & (b), 23550); misdemeanor hit and run with property damage (count 3; § 20002, subd. (a)); and misdemeanor driving without a license (count 4; § 12500, subd. (a)). A jury convicted Johns of driving under the influence (§ 23152, subd. (a)), hit and run with property damage (§ 20002, subd. (a)), and driving without a license (§ 12500, subd. (a)). The court found true three prior convictions for driving while under the influence with the past 10 years (§ 23550). On appeal, however, Johns challenges only his misdemeanor hit and run conviction. He argues there was insufficient evidence of property damage and insufficient evidence that he knew of property damage. We disagree and affirm.
