The following excerpt is from People v. Henriquez, B230115 (Cal. App. 2012):
motion, the trial court rules as to whether there is "good cause" for disclosure. (Evid. Code, 1043, 1045.) If the court orders disclosure, the custodian of the officer's records brings to court all the potentially relevant personnel records and, in camera, the trial court determines whether any of the records are to be disclosed to the defense. During the in camera hearing, neither the defense nor the prosecution is present. (People v. Mooc (2001) 26 Cal.4th 1216, 1226-1227, 1229 (Mooc).)
