California Court of Appeal December 29, 1995, A070472 (People v. Allison)

Opinion

DOSSEE, J.

In this case, we must decide whether Penal Code section 667, subdivisions (b) through (i), the legislative version of the “Three Strikes Law,” requires that a defendant’s prior serious or violent felonies have been “brought and tried separately” in order to qualify as multiple “strikes.”

We conclude that the Three Strikes Law contains no such requirement.
