How have the courts treated admission of "photographic evidence"?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from K.C. v. T.O., B255825 (Cal. App. 2015):

As for the photographic evidence, Father argues pictures of Daughters would have shown they were not well cared for because they were dressed in dirty clothes. Mother admitted, however, that Daughters would sometimes return home from school dirty from playing. Father's photographic evidence of this fact was cumulative and therefore unnecessary. (People v. Ochoa (1998) 19 Cal.4th 353, 415 [admission of "photographic evidence" reviewed on grounds of "undue prejudice or cumulativeness for abuse of discretion"].) The court did not abuse its discretion in not accepting the photographs.
