Does the court grant Mayhew immunity from prosecution for any other crime occurring that night?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Cooke, 16 Cal.App.4th 1361, 20 Cal.Rptr.2d 506 (Cal. App. 1993):

Defense counsel moved the court to grant Mayhew immunity from prosecution for any other crime occurring that evening. The trial court denied the motion. Defendant raised due process and compulsory process arguments on appeal. Note that although the majority deemed the issue waived, it addressed the matter to counter the dissent's position that the court should embrace a doctrine of judicially declared immunity based on constitutional considerations. (People v. Sutter, supra, 134 Cal.App.3d at p. 813, 184 Cal.Rptr. 829.)
