MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Kirk v. Felker, No. CIV S-07-2521 GEB GGH P (E.D. Cal. 2011):

While deliberating, the jury requested a readback of the testimony concerning when the foreman turned the notes of sale over to the prosecutor. One hour later, the jury returned a guilty verdict on the count alleging possession of the stolen truck. The jury deadlocked on the unlawful taking or driving charge. In a bifurcated bench trial, the court found true that defendant had served five prior prison terms. The court sentenced defendant to a nine-year aggregate prison term.
