People v. Howardgreen2 sentences2019This holding condemns few laws, but, in my view, one of them is California second degree felony murder.” (Dis. opn. post, at p. 5, fn. omitted.) Also, “my view is that our second degree felony-murder law is unconstitutionally vague under Johnson because it has a defendant’s guilt depend on a court’s evaluation of a hypothetical risk posed by an abstract generic version of the offense.” (Dis. opn. post, at p. 18.) We respect his viewpoint but emphasize again that we limit this decision to this record presented before us in this case, which we hold does not support such a finding. 8 The dissent 2019This holding condemns few laws, but, in my view, one of them is California second degree felony murder.” (Dis. opn. post, at p. 5, fn. omitted.)

Johnson v. United States
green
1 sentence2019This holding condemns few laws, but, in my view, one of them is California second degree felony murder.2 1 Importantly as well, apart from Johnson’s two-pronged test, the Supreme Court rejected the principle, indicated by some of its prior cases, that “‘a statute is void for vagueness only if it is vague in all its applications.’” (Johnson, 135 S.Ct. at p. 2561 .) This principle has been applied in California as a federal constitutional requirement. | 1 | 2019–2019 |
