Is a plaintiff's right to confront defendant Rivas outside the jury's presence a valid claim?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Anderson, B282048 (Cal. App. 2019):

Appellant did not object to the court admonishing Rivas outside the jury's presence at all, much less on the ground that the procedure violated his right to confrontation. Hence, the claim is forfeited. (People v. Smith (2001) 24 Cal.4th 849, 852 ["As a general rule, only 'claims properly raised and preserved by the parties are reviewable on appeal' "].)
