What is the test for an excusal of a District Attorney in a civil case?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Garcia, B221672 (Cal. App. 2012):

The evidence is sufficient to show that the trial court fulfilled that duty. The court expressly accepted the prosecutor's explanation as credible, explaining that: "the District Attorney has justified his position here, and he has a basis for the excusal" that does not rest on an improper group bias, and that is sincere, legitimate, and was not exercised solely on grounds of group bias." (People v. Reynoso, supra, 31 Cal.4th at p. 924.)10
