People v. Arnett CA4/3

FACTS AND PROCEDURAL HISTORY

The facts and procedural history are recounted in our prior opinion affirming Arnett’s convictions and sentence. (People v. Arnett (Dec. 23, 2014, G050397 [nonpub opn.].) Briefly, in May 2012, a jury convicted Jesus Lamar Arnett of two counts of forgery (§§ 475, subd. (a), 476). The trial court found Arnett suffered two prior felony convictions in 2000 for lewd or lascivious conduct against a child under the age of 14 (§ 288, subd. (a)), declined to strike either of the prior convictions (People v. Romero (2002) 99 Cal.App.4th 1418, 1434; § 1385) and sentenced Arnett as a third strike offender under sections 667, subdivisions (b)-(i) and 1170.12, subdivisions (a)-(d). The court imposed a term of 25 years to life for forgery, plus three consecutive one-year terms

2 because Arnett had served three separate prison terms within the meaning of section 667.5, subdivision (b). In October 2014, Arnett filed a petition for resentencing under section 1170.126. In November 2014, the trial court denied the petition.
