Sentencing, death penalty opinions filing tomorrow

July 23, 2014

Tomorrow morning, the Supreme Court will file opinions in two criminal law cases, both of which were argued on the early-May calendar.

In People v. Whitmer, the court is faced with the issue whether the defendant was properly sentenced on multiple counts of grand theft or whether his multiple takings constituted a single offense under People v. Bailey (1961) 55 Cal.2d 514.

People v. Boyce is an automatic appeal from a September 2000 judgment of death.

The opinions can be viewed tomorrow starting at 10:00 a.m.
