Is the error by the Attorney General harmless beyond a reasonable doubt?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Perroton, H041294, H041486 (Cal. App. 2015):

The Attorney General contends the error was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt because defendant admitted at least two of the probation violations, including his criminal threats conviction. Defendant argues it cannot be determined with certainty whether the court would have revoked his probation because the court could have exercised its discretion to reinstate probation if it had found defendant had not committed all five alleged probation violations. For this proposition, defendant relies on People v.
