What is relevant and unduly prejudicial evidence in a civil case?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Williams, A136141 (Cal. App. 2014):
Appellant contends the court should have excluded evidence he had "a lot of guns" in 2003 because it was irrelevant and unduly prejudicial. We review the court's admission of the evidence for abuse of discretion. (People v. Panah (2005) 35 Cal.4th 395, 474.) Evidence is relevant if it has "any tendency in reason to prove or disprove any disputed fact that is of consequence to the determination of the action." ( 210.)
