Description
"Numerous California penal statutes allow increased punishment to be imposed upon a defendant if the prosecution alleges and proves that the defendant has suffered one or more prior convictions." (People v. Saunders (1993) 5 Cal. 4th 580, 585, 853 P.2d 1093.) In People v. Bracamonte (1981) 119 Cal. App. 3d 644, 655, 174 Cal. Rptr. 191 (Bracamonte), the Court of Appeal stated, as a "'judicially declared rule[] of practice,'" that a defendant is entitled to have the determination of the truth of such an allegation bifurcated from the jury's determination of the defendant's guilt of the currently charged offense.
