What can a reasonable jury do in the absence of an error under consideration?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Jackson, A148619 (Cal. App. 2018):

reasonable jury could do, but what such a jury is likely to have done in the absence of the error under consideration. In making that evaluation, an appellate court may consider, among other things, whether the evidence supporting the existing judgment is so relatively strong, and the evidence supporting a different outcome is so comparatively weak, that there is no reasonable probability the error of which the defendant complains affected the result.' " (People v. Anderson (2006) 141 Cal.App.4th 430, 449-450, italics omitted.)
