People v. Castrogreen

2014(People v. Castro (1985) 38 Cal.3d 301, 317 [A witness’ prior conviction is only admissible for impeachment purposes “if the least adjudicated elements of the conviction necessarily involve moral turpitude”].) The California Supreme Court defines moral turpitude as a “readiness to do evil” or a “moral depravity of any kind.” (People v. Lang (1989) 49 Cal.3d 991, 1009 .) Without delving into the specific circumstances and motivations of Allen’s past misconduct, we assume that her vandalism conviction meets the moral turpitude requirement.

1992The moral turpitude requirement was imposed by our Supreme Court in People v. Castro, supra, 38 Cal.3d 301 .

Statutes the citing opinions construe

CA § Cal. Evidence Code § 210 (8) CA § Cal. Evidence Code § 352 (6) CA § Cal. Evidence Code § 788 (3) CA § Cal. Penal Code § 664 (3)

Counted by distinct opinions that both name this issue and are annotated to the section; sections every opinion cites regardless of issue are not filtered here, so read the counts against the total above.

Where else courts name it

CA 20 (1969–2018) SC 6 (2012–2026) DC 5 (2004–2010) AL 3 (1993–2018) WA 3 (1958–1990) TN 2 (1976–1985)

Opinions by the citing court's state. A doctrine retained in one state and abandoned in another shows up here as a year span that stalls.
