California v. Shropshire
Annotate this CaseDefendant Ryan Shropshire was convicted of of manufacturing concentrated cannabis. Defendant Bryan Roberts was convicted on multiple counts, including two counts of receiving stolen property, unlawful possession of methamphetamine, unlawful possession of ammunition, two counts of receiving a stolen motor vehicle, possession of a deadly weapon, and three counts of possession of a firearm by a felon. In the published portion of its opinion, the Court of Appeal agreed with Shropshire that he was entitled to additional custody credits: Shropshire was serving a two-year sentence in a separate case from Placer County while he awaited trial in this case, and the sentence in the Placer County case was reduced to a misdemeanor before Shropshire was sentenced here. Because he had accrued more custody credits than was necessary to serve the sentence in the Placer County case, defendant was entitled to apply those excess credits to his sentence to the cannabis conviction. In the unpublished portion of its opinion, the Court rejected Roberts’ and Shropshire’s challenges to a search warrant authorizing a search for stolen property. Further, the Court disagreed with Roberts’ remaining contentions except that one of his convictions for unlawful possession of a firearm should have been stayed pursuant to Penal Code section 654, and rejected Shropshire’s remaining claims except that a one-year prior prison term enhancement imposed pursuant to Penal Code section 667.5(b) should have been stricken. Accordingly, the Court modified the judgments as to both defendants and affirmed the judgments as modified.
