Opinion

HUFFMAN, J.

Aljerome McCain pled guilty to possessing cocaine base in violation of Health and Safety Code section 11350, subdivision (a) and admitted a serious felony prior pursuant to Penal Code 1 section 667, subdivisions (d) and (e). He was sentenced to a total term of 32 months, consisting of the lower term for the crime of possessing cocaine base, which was doubled because of his qualification as a “second strike” offender.

McCain appeals, contending the provisions of the statute limiting his ability to accrue prison credits violate his right to equal protection of the law.
