How does section 667.7 of the California Criminal Code apply to prior prison terms served for robberies involving the use of a deadly weapon?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Logan, 190 Cal.App.3d 599, 235 Cal.Rptr. 547 (Cal. App. 1987):
We therefore hold the pertinent provision of section 667.7 applies to prior prison terms served for robberies involving the use of a deadly weapon. We have no occasion to consider--and we expressly refrain from deciding--whether "use" refers only to personal use by the defendant or whether it includes use by others. (But see People v. Piper (1986) 42 Cal.3d 471, 229 Cal.Rptr. 125, 722 P.2d 899.)
