California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Edwards, 150 Cal.Rptr. 86, 86 Cal.App.3d 260 (Cal. App. 1978):
Subsequent judicial decisions have recognized that the purpose and effect of this 1967 legislation was to make the Swann rule inapplicable to prosecutions for forgery arising out of credit card transactions. (People v. Gingles (1973) 32 Cal.App.3d 1030, 1036, 108 Cal.Rptr. 744; People v. Liberto (1969) 274 Cal.App.2d 460, 462, 79 Cal.Rptr. 306.)
