California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Combs, A130068 (Cal. App. 2013):

v. Monterroso (2004) 34 Cal.4th 743, 780.) "[A]ppellate courts still must evaluate the propriety of judicial comment on a case-by-case basis, noting whether the peculiar content and circumstances of the court's remarks deprived the accused of his right to trial by jury."
