THE PEOPLE, B340790
Plaintiff and Respondent, (Los Angeles County Super. Ct. No. 24SFCF01148) v.
SHAWN BALTAZAR JACKSON,
Defendant and Appellant.
APPEAL from a judgment of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County, Pamela Tamu Usher, Judge. Dismissed. Michael H. Casey, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant. Rob Bonta, Attorney General, Lance E. Winters, Chief Assistant Attorney General, Susan Sullivan Pithey, Assistant Attorney General, Steven D. Matthews and Analee J. Brodie, Deputy Attorneys General, for Plaintiff and Respondent. __________________________________
Without a certificate of probable cause, appellant Shawn Baltazar Jackson appeals from his plea of no contest to one count of being a felon in possession of a firearm, contending the magistrate judge erred in denying his motion to suppress evidence under Penal Code section 1538.5.1 Because Jackson never renewed his motion before the superior court prior to pleading no contest, we lack jurisdiction to consider his appeal and therefore dismiss it.
FACTUAL AND PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND2
A. Jackson is Charged and Moves to Suppress Evidence In August 2024, a felony complaint charged Jackson with: (1) being a felon in possession of a firearm; (2) unlawful possession of ammunition prohibited by a prior conviction; (3) carrying a loaded handgun on his person and in a vehicle; and (4) providing false information to a police officer. Eight days later, Jackson moved to suppress evidence under section 1538.5. Jackson admitted that, on August 12, 2024, he was sitting in a car with two acquaintances when police detained all three. While handcuffed, a police officer patted Jackson down and found a firearm and a “clear plastic baggie containing a crystalline substance.” Jackson alleged the police searched him without a warrant and without his consent.
