People v. Robertson

Opinion

MERRILL, J.

Appellant Patrick Thomas Robertson was charged with one count of auto theft (Veh. Code, § 10851) and one count of false personation (Pen. Code, 1 § 529). Following trial, the jury was unable to reach a verdict on the charge of auto theft. However, it found appellant guilty of the charge of false personation. Thereafter, the court declared a mistrial relative to the auto theft charge and that charge was subsequently dismissed. Appellant was sentenced to the upper term of three years in state prison. Appellant appeals his conviction of false personation. We affirm.
