What is the effect of section 352 of the Ontario Criminal Code on a witness testimony?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Gutierrez, B233724 (Cal. App. 2012):

Appellant also argues that the trial court erred in concluding under section 352 that the statements were inadmissible. "Under . . . section 352, the trial court enjoys broad discretion in assessing whether the probative value of particular evidence is outweighed by concerns of undue prejudice, confusion or consumption of time. [Citation.]" (People v. Rodrigues (1994) 8 Cal.4th 1060, 1124.) In light of the preceding discussion finding the statements were not relevant, and applying the deferential standard of review applicable to a trial court's evidentiary rulings under section 352, we find no abuse of discretion.
