Is there any case law where a defendant has successfully argued that the discovery that the trial court ordered the defense to provide to the prosecution under section 1054.5 violated his self-incrimination privilege?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Grimes, 1 Cal.5th 698, 207 Cal.Rptr.3d 1, 378 P.3d 320 (Cal. 2016):

Defendant contends that the discovery that the trial court ordered the defense to provide to the prosecution under section 1054.5 violated provisions of the federal and state Constitutions protecting his self-incrimination privilege, his right to due process, and his right to the effective assistance of counsel. Defendant recognizes that we rejected these arguments in Izazaga v. Superior Court (1991) 54 Cal.3d 356, 285 Cal.Rptr. 231, 815 P.2d 304, but, to preserve the issue for federal review, he contends that case was wrongly decided and should be reconsidered. We decline to do so.
