California Court of Appeal

Conviction and sentencing of defendant for first degree murder and second degree robbery is affirmed, where a verdict finding defendant "guilty of violation of section 187(a) of the Penal Code, a felony, first degree murder, as charged in the information" satisfies the requirement that the jury expressly find the degree of the crime even though the information charged generic murder without specifying the degree.
