2001The cocaine was found in the safe by police the following day during a search pursuant to a warrant. ( Id. at p. 1442, 249 Cal.Rptr. 601 .) The Cole court concluded the trial court had erred in defining constructive possession for the jury (CALJIC No. 12.00) followed by an instruction based on Mijares because the jury might have accepted Cole's claim—that he had only "momentarily handled the cocaine for purposes of disposal or abandonment"—but nevertheless felt it had to convict him because the drugs remained "in his constructive possession in the safe for more than `brief moments.' ..."

2001The court concluded these costs "necessarily and impermissibly deter[ ] teachers from exercising their due process right to a hearing" (id. at p. 357, 84 Cal.Rptr.2d 425 , 975 P.2d 622 ), bolstering its reasoning with a reference to Cole : "The invalidity of a provision requiring dismissed public teachers to pay for the public cost of the administrative law judge is apparent when we consider decisions holding that even private employees who have agreed to private arbitration of statutory wrongful termination claims cannot be compelled to pay half the cost of the arbitrator." (Id. at pp. 354-35

2013(Corona, at pp. 591–595.) Moreover, Corona concluded the Cole analysis “makes no sense when applied to a group pummeling.” (Corona, at p. 594.) “[W]hen a defendant participates in a group beating 9. and when it is not possible to determine which assailant inflicted which injuries, the defendant may be punished with a great bodily injury enhancement if his conduct was of a nature that it could have caused the great bodily injury suffered.” (Ibid.) The holding in Corona was affirmed by our Supreme Court in People v. Modiri (2006) 39 Cal.4th 481 (Modiri).
