issue raised defense in California

2017In Lew , although the court determined that the murder victim's out-of-court statements that the defendant had threatened to kill her were relevant to an issue raised by the defense, the evidence was deemed inadmissible, in part, because the statements referred to the defendant's past acts, rather than threats of future conduct. ( Id . at pp. 779-780, 69 Cal.Rptr. 102 , 441 P.2d 942 .) But the decisional basis for excluding the evidence for that reason, People v. Hamilton (1961) 55 Cal.2d 881 , 893, 13 Cal.Rptr. 649 , 362 P.2d 473 , appears to have been largely undermined by the later enactmen

2021(People v. Mora and Rangel (2018) 5 Cal.5th 442, 499 .) Defendant’s proposed pinpoint instruction added nothing to the standard instruction with which the 2 jury was instructed. 2 The jury was instructed with CALCRIM No. 860, as follows: “The defendant is charged in Counts 1 and 2 with assault with a deadly weapon on a peace officer in violation of Penal Code section 245(c).

2015(People v. Najera (2006) 138 Cal.App.4th 212, 223 .) In this case, in argument to the jury, the prosecutor focused on the issue of whether a reasonable person would kill in response to the purported provocation of an abortion.

2010In Traywicks v. State , for example, the Court of Criminal Appeals of Oklahoma held that a defendant who raised mental defect and alcoholism as a defense to guilt did not have to answer questions about the charged crime during a court-ordered examination on his mental condition, where the defendant had not testified about the crime or talked about the crime with the defense examiner. ( Traywicks v. State (1996) 1996 OKCR 54 [ 927 P.2d 1062, 1063-1064 ].) In these circumstances, the court held, the defendant "did not waive his right to silence as to the facts of the crime itself." ( Id., 927 P.

1995(People v. Sedeno, supra, 10 Cal.3d at p. 721 .) Thus, as in Polley , the first degree murder conviction necessarily determined the issue raised by the defense of accident.

1977And in United States v. McCrillis (1st Cir. 1952) 200 F.2d 884 , it was held that a landlord was not required to challenge before an administrative agency the validity of an order setting a maximum rent as a condition to raising that issue in the trial court in an action by the government alleging that he was charging more than the rent set by the administrative order. 4 In neither of the foregoing cases did the defendant bypass the administrative agency altogether, as did Gordon here, but obtained an adverse determination from the agency on the substance of the issue raised as a defense prior

1977The present situation appears to be more closely analogous to McGee v. United States (1971) 402 U.S. 479 [ 29 L.Ed.2d 47 , 91 S.Ct. 1565 ], relied upon by the commission.

1924The existence of an estoppel is a question of fact (Di Nola v. Allison, 143 Cal. 106 [ 101 Am.

1923Co., 173 Cal. 1 , 3 [ 158 P. 1022 ].) It is apparent from the evidence that the person who did the shooting was at the time aiming at Fong Wing.

1923Co., 169 Cal. 800 , 802 [ 147 P. 1175 ].) But on the issue raised by the claim of the defendant that the insured died as the result of "injuries intentionally inflicted" on him, the burden of proof rested upon the defendant. ( Postler v. Travelers' Ins.

1923Co., 169 Cal. 800 , 802 [ 147 P. 1175 ].) But on the issue raised by the claim of the defendant that the insured died as the result of "injuries intentionally inflicted" on him, the burden of proof rested upon the defendant. ( Postler v. Travelers' Ins.

1894(Murphy v. Bennett, 68 Cal. 528 .) So an issue raised by a defense upon which no evidence is offered at the trial and no finding made is deemed immaterial, and the judgment will not be reversed for want of a finding.
