How have the courts treated allegations of misconduct by a prosecutor in a criminal case?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Kozel, 133 Cal.App.3d 507, 184 Cal.Rptr. 208 (Cal. App. 1982):
Appellant cites a number of instances of the prosecutor's alleged misconduct. No objection was raised to some of these acts of claimed misconduct and they would, therefore, not constitute grounds for appeal. (People v. Green (1980) 27 Cal.3d 1, 27, 164 Cal.Rptr. 1, 609 P.2d 468.) We discuss and evaluate them, however, because of appellant's claims of defense counsel's incompetency.
