The following excerpt is from Ganyo v. Municipal Court, 145 Cal.Rptr. 636, 80 Cal.App.3d 522 (Cal. App. 1978):
The factual basis should be developed on the record. The particularity and extent of inquiry into the factual basis can be determined by the circumstances of each case and left to the sound discretion of the judge. (See People v. Watts (1977) 67 Cal.App.3d 173, 178-179, 136 Cal.Rptr. 476.)
