People vs. Hassan
Oct 01, 2008OUTCOME: reversed
From the decision: Ahmed Ali Hassan, also know as Ahmed Aly Abdel Azim Hassan, Ahmed Ali Abdel-Azim Ibrahim Hassan, Ahmed Aly and Ahmed Aly Hassan Abdel Azim, appeals from the judgment fn. 1 entered ... upon his convictions in a court trial of offering a false or forged instrument for recording (Pen. Code, § 115, subd. (a), count 1) fn. 2 and offering false evidence (§ 132, count 2). The trial court sentenced him to the middle term of two years on count 1, staying execution of sentence and placing him on three years' probation on condition he serve one year in county jail. On count 2, it suspended imposition of sentence and placed him on three years' probation. Appellant contends that there is insufficient evidence (1) he violated section 115, and (2) he violated section 132. We reverse the conviction of count 2 and otherwise affirm. Appellant contends that his conviction of offering false evidence is unsupported by the evidence and contrary to law. He argues that there is no evidence that his marriage contract was forged, fraudulently altered or antedated because he had entered an Islamic {Slip Opn. Page 12} marriage. With respect to the "I-94" and "I -20" forms, while he does not contend that they are authentic, he claims that there was no evidence he knew they were forged or fraudulently altered. Appellant further contends that in any event, providing these documents to federal immigration investigators is not a "trial, proceeding, inquiry, or investigation whatever" because it is unclear whether those terms apply to state or local proceedings or whether they also apply to federal proceedings. We agree with appellant's contention that section 132 is inapplicable to the federal proceeding here. We therefore need not consider his first contention.
