People v. Romanowski

At issue in this case was whether theft of access card account information is one of the crimes eligible for reduced punishment under Proposition 47. In 2014, Defendant pleaded no contest to a felony. Voters subsequently approved Proposition 47, which reduced the punishment for several crimes previously punished as felonies. In 2015, Petitioner filed a resentencing petition. The superior court denied the petition, concluding that Proposition 47 does not apply to theft of access card information. The Court of Appeal reversed. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that theft of access card account information is one of the crimes eligible for reduced punishment under Proposition 47.
