Is the forfeiture rule applicable to claims of federal and state constitutional error?

No procedural principle is more familiar than the forfeiture rule. A judgment shall not be reversed for an evidentiary error unless a timely objection was interposed on the same ground that is asserted on appeal. (Evid. Code, 353, subd. (a).) The contemporaneous objection rule applies to claims of state and federal constitutional error. (People v. Daniels (2009) 176 Cal.App.4th 304, 320, fn. 10.) The objection requirement is necessary because a contrary rule "would deprive the People of the opportunity to cure the defect at trial and would 'permit the defendant to gamble on an acquittal at his trial secure in the knowledge that a conviction would be reversed on appeal.' [Citation.]" (People v. Rogers (1978) 21 Cal.3d 542, 548.)
