P. v. Pineda
Annotate this Case
At issue in this habeas corpus petition is the applicability of Defendant's Sec 12022.53 firearm enhancement and the trial judge's discretion in striking the enhancement. Defendant appealed, claiming the trial judge abused its discretion in applying the enhancement and sought relief under Senate Bill 624.
The Second Appellate District affirmed Defendant's firearm enhancement under Sec 12022.53, finding the trial court properly weighed the aggravating and mitigating factors and did not abuse its discretion. Further, Defendant was not entitled to relief under Senate Bill 624, because it is not retroactive in application.
