Under existing law, certain specified felonies shall be punished by imprisonment in a county jail for 16 months, or 2 or 3 years, or where the term is specified, for the term described in the underlying offense. Notwithstanding these provisions, existing law requires that a sentence be served in state prison where the defendant has a prior or current conviction for a serious or violent felony, has a prior felony conviction in another jurisdiction that has all of the elements of a serious or violent felony, is required to register as a sex offender, or has an aggravated white collar crime enhancement imposed as part of the sentence. This bill would additionally require a sentence to be served in state prison when the defendant is convicted of a felony otherwise punishable in a county jail and is sentenced to more than 3 years.
