Hmmm., 15 huh? It all depends. The mandatory sentence is life after the third felony conviction; convicted being the key element. If 15 felonies are committed, but the person is not convicted on any of them, then there is no prison time. Judicial discretion, mandatory sentencing guidelines, pre-sentencing reports, etc., determine the length of incarceration for 1st and 2nd felony convictions. Also, if the person already has 2 convictions and is planning to continue a life in crime, he or she better accumulate the next 13 offenses in one shot. Again, after three(3) in CA, it's a mandatory life sentence.
P.S. This was an odd question!

Although the state assembly every so often tries to dillute the current law, I believe its still "three strikes and your out" (meaning life). Of course why should it be 3?. Why not 1 ? or 10? or 2 and a half? Or 5 or 6 "depending" ? Just goes to show how stupid politicians are that in order to make life even easier for themselves they adopt a tradition from a game. If you were the victim of felony # 3, you'd wish it had been "2 strikes and your out".

At the very least, they should get life without parole... at the best, they should get a needle in their arm because anyone with 15 felonys isn't fit to live with the human race.

Life, at least. It only takes 3 felonies in CA to get life in prison.

Well, if there's a 3 strikes and you're out law there you are toast. Proabably are anyway. Probably were after the first couple. Oh well, good luck. If you should happen to ever see the light of day again, JUST SAY NO!

having 3 can get you mandatory 25 to life,
(the "3 strikes" law)
so 15 certainly will get you 25 to life.

The third one gets you life, the rest are just a waste of your time.
