Wilson

In May 2005, defendant Jon Burgess Wilson entered a plea of guilty to second degree burglary (Pen. Code, § 459) in exchange for the dismissal of an additional charge of petty theft (shoplifting) (§ 490.5). The trial court placed defendant on three years’ formal probation. In October 2007, defendant admitted three violations of his probation. In November 2007, the trial court denied defendant reinstatement of probation and sentenced him to state prison for the upper term of three years.

On appeal, defendant claims the trial court’s imposition of the upper term violated his federal constitutional rights under Apprendi v. New Jersey (2000) 530 U.S. 466 [ 147 L.Ed.2d 435 , 120 S.Ct. 2348 ] (Apprendi), Blakely v. Washington (2004) 542 U.S. 296 [ 159 L.Ed.2d 403 , 124 S.Ct. 2531 ] (Blakely), and Cunningham v. California (2007) 549 U.S. 270 [ 127 S.Ct. 856 , 166 L.Ed.2d 856 ] (Cunningham). We shall affirm the judgment.
