Description

After a bench trial, Simmie Anderson ("Anderson") was convicted of the crimes of possession of marijuana and phencyclidine ("PCP") with intent to distribute in violation of La. R.S. 40:966 and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon in violation of La. R.S. 14:95.1. Anderson was adjudicated a second felony offender and received concurrent sentences of fifteen years at hard labor without benefit of probation or suspension of sentence on the two drug counts and ten years at hard labor, without benefit of parole, probation or suspension of sentence on the firearm conviction. *fn1 After the denial of his timely motion for reconsideration of sentence, Anderson appealed raising as error, among other matters, the sufficiency of the evidence of his constructive possession of the drugs and gun. For the following reasons, we affirm the convictions and sentence imposed for the felon possession of a firearm conviction. However, we set aside the habitual offender adjudication and sentences for the possession of marijuana and PCP with intent to distribute convictions and remand for resentencing and adjudication since enhancement under the habitual offender law in this case may apply to only one of those convictions.
