California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Brown, A128342 (Cal. App. 2011):

Appellant's failure to raise a claim of due process at trial in connection with the admission of this evidence waives any additional challenge on that basis. (People v. Rowland (1992) 4 Cal.4th 238, 265, fn. 4, People v. Raley (1992) 2 Cal.4th 870, 892.)
