Does the full misdemeanor sentence violate equal protection?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Carr, B225383 (Cal. App. 2011):
The full misdemeanor sentence did not violate equal protection. Defense counsel did not object to the consecutive term below on equal protection grounds. We therefore agree with the Attorney General that the claim is forfeited under People v. Scott (1994) 9 Cal.4th 331, 353 for failure to interpose a timely and specific objection.
