How has the court dealt with forfeiture of a vehicle seized from a defendant in a motion to appeal against his conviction for second degree murder?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Larrabee, E063007 (Cal. App. 2017):

Acknowledging his forfeiture, defendant alternatively claims his defense counsel rendered ineffective assistance in failing to object to the prosecutor's erroneous remarks. We disagree. Defendant has not demonstrated prejudicea reasonable likelihood he would have realized a more favorable result than his conviction for second degree murder had his defense counsel objected and requested a curative admonition. (People v. Najera (2006) 138 Cal.App.4th 212, 224-225.)
