The following excerpt is from People v. Ramirez, 10 Cal.5th 983, 274 Cal.Rptr.3d 309, 479 P.3d 797 (Cal. 2021):
Defendant contends that reversal of his convictions is required because of the cumulative effects of asserted errors occurring during the guilt phase. "Because we have found no error, there is no cumulative prejudice to evaluate." ( People v. Lopez (2018) 5 Cal.5th 339, 371, 235 Cal.Rptr.3d 64, 420 P.3d 878.)
