What review of a decision to deny a defendant's request for disclosure of juror identifying information?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Andrade, C053346 (Cal. App. 4/23/2008), C053346 (Cal. App. 2008):

Review of a decision to deny a defendant's request for disclosure of juror identifying information is under the abuse of discretion standard. (People v. Jones (1998) 17 Cal.4th 279, 317.) Here, because defendant failed to establish good cause for disclosure of juror identifying information, and because his request for a continuance was premised on his having additional time to contact jurors, the trial court did not err in denying the request.
