How has the Court dealt with appellant's claim of cumulative error?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Reyes, B266696 (Cal. App. 2017):
Appellant contends the cumulative prejudicial effect of the various trial errors he has raised on appeal requires the reversal of his convictions. However, other than the insufficient evidence of felony stalking (an error we will correct), we have found no error. Accordingly, we need not address appellant's claim of cumulative error. (See People v. Melendez (2016) 2 Cal.5th 1, 33.)
