Indeed, “[b]ecause the important question is whether the punitive damages will have the deterrent effect without being excessive, an award that is reasonable in light of the first two factors, reprehensibility of the defendant’s conduct and injury to the victims, may nevertheless ‘be so disproportionate to the defendant’s ability to pay that the award is excessive’ for that reason alone.

1983(People v. Beagle, supra, 6 Cal.3d 441, 453 .) The court must weigh the first two factors “against the probability that admission of such evidence ‘will (a) necessitate undue consumption of time, or (b) create substantial danger of undue prejudice, of confusing the issues, or of misleading the jury.’ (§ 352.)” (People v. Fries (1979) 24 Cal.3d 222, 227 [ 155 Cal.Rptr. 194 , 594 P.2d 19 ].) “The third and fourth factors provide guidance in assessing the weight of these contervailing considerations.” (People v. Lassell (1980) 108 Cal.App.3d 720, 724 [ 116 Cal.Rptr. 678 ].) In People v. Rollo, su

1983In People v. Beagle, supra, 6 Cal.3d 441 , the Supreme Court held that a trial court may admit or exclude evidence of prior felony convictions offered to impeach a witness upon balancing four factors: (1) whether the prior felony conviction reflects adversely on the defendant's honesty or veracity; (2) *498 whether the conviction is near or remote in time; (3) whether the conviction is for substantially similar conduct for which the accused is on trial; (4) the effect if the defendant does not testify out of fear of being prejudiced because of impeachment by prior convictions. ( People v. Beag

2024“While the first two factors identify forces—time and intervening circumstances—that may tend to attenuate the causal connection between the misconduct and the discovery of evidence, the focus of the third factor is different: It ‘ “is directly tied to the purpose of the exclusionary rule—deterring police misconduct.” ’ ” (People v. McWilliams (2023) 14 Cal.5th 429 , 446.) “The greater the degree of purposefulness or flagrancy associated with the police misconduct, the greater the justification required to admit evidence obtained through the misconduct.” (Ibid.) When analyzing the Brown factor

2023While the first two factors identify forces — time and intervening 20 PEOPLE v. MCWILLIAMS Opinion of the Court by Kruger, J. circumstances — that may tend to attenuate the causal connection between the misconduct and the discovery of evidence, the focus of the third factor is different: It “ ‘is directly tied to the purpose of the exclusionary rule — deterring police misconduct.’ ” (Brendlin, supra, 45 Cal.4th at p. 271 .) Police misconduct, the high court has said, is “most in need of deterrence . . . when it is purposeful or flagrant.” (Strieff, supra, 579 U.S. at p. 241 ; accord, Brendlin,

2016Exchange (1978) 21 Cal.3d 910, 928 .) “In determining whether a punitive damages award is excessive, the Supreme Court has set forth three factors to guide us: (1) the reprehensibility of the defendant’s conduct; (2) the actual harm suffered; and (3) the wealth of the defendant. [Citation.] An award that is reasonable in light of the first two factors may nevertheless be so disproportionate to the defendant’s ability to pay that the award is excessive for that reason alone.
