The following excerpt is from People v. Wright, H044844 (Cal. App. 2019):
6. To the extent that defendant contends that the instruction on perfect self-defense should have been clarified, his claim has been waived. "A party may not argue on appeal that an instruction correct in law was too general or incomplete, and thus needed clarification, without first requesting such clarification at trial." (People v. Hillhouse (2002) 27 Cal.4th 469, 503.)
