1Opinion of the CourtBurke, J.

On this appeal from a nonjury municipal court conviction of seven misdemeanor violations 1 of Penal Code section 484b, we have determined that contrary to defendant’s contentions the statute is not subject to constitutional infirmities, and that the evidence supports the conviction. Accordingly, the judgment will be affirmed.

Penal Code section 484b was enacted in 1965. 2 It appears to be directed generally at persons in the construction and building improvement field who fail to use construction funds for the payment of laborers and materialmen on the project.
