People v. Rascon
Annotate this CaseDefendant appealed her convictions for drug, firearm, and ammunition possession. The court concluded that defendant's Miranda rights were not violated; substantial evidence supported the finding that defendant was armed; substantial evidence supported the finding that the guns were operable; defendant was not automatically entitled to a reduction of her sentence on count 10 for possession of marijuana for sale; and, because the single act of possession formed the basis of both sentences for possession of methamphetamine for sale while personally armed and possession of methamphetamine while armed with an operable firearm, the lesser sentence for possession of methamphetamine while armed with an operable firearm must be stayed. Accordingly, the court modified the sentence and otherwise affirmed the judgment.
