California Court of Appeal

In the People's appeal of an order granting defendant's petition to reduce his Health and Safety Code felony conviction to a misdemeanor pursuant to Penal Code section 1170.18, in a case in which the 'entire jurisdiction' of defendant's case was transferred under section 1203.9 to the Superior Court of the County of Riverside after he was sentenced to probation by the Superior Court of the County of San Diego, the order is affirmed over the People's contention that defendant's petition must be decided by the trial court in San Diego that originally sentenced defendant, where under section 1203.9, the Riverside superior court now has entire jurisdiction over defendant's case, including the power to decide defendant's section 1170.18 petition.
