Does the trial court erred in denying a motion to strike because defense counsel failed to object in a timely manner?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Silva, C051277 (Cal. App. 5/30/2007), C051277 (Cal. App. 2007):

The trial court initially found that defense counsel had failed to object in a timely manner but subsequently ruled on the merits. We will thus review whether the trial court erred in denying defendant's motion to strike. (People v. Abbot (1956) 47 Cal.2d 362, 372-373.)
