On Monday morning, the Supreme Court will file its opinion in People v. Jimenez, the last undecided December calendar case. (Briefs here; oral argument video here.)
Jimenez raises the issue whether a felony conviction for the unauthorized use of personal identifying information of another (Pen. Code, § 530.5, subd. (a)) may be reclassified as a misdemeanor under Proposition 47 on the ground that the offense amounted to Penal Code section 459.5 shoplifting. The court granted review in July 2018.
Jiminez will become the latest in a long line of Proposition 47 decisions. And the court isn’t finished. Two other Proposition 47 cases were argued in January and one more in February.
The opinion can be viewed Monday starting at 10:00 a.m.
