What is the record of a hearing under seal on a motion to compel disclosure in a civil case?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Badilla, B256297 (Cal. App. 2015):

The trial court granted the motion and conducted an in camera hearing at which it examined the records provided by the police department. The court found there was no discoverable material subject to disclosure. At defendant's request, we ordered the court reporter to prepare and file a sealed transcript of that hearing. We have reviewed the record under seal and independently conclude that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in its ruling on the Pitchess motion. (See People v. Prince (2007) 40 Cal.4th 1179, 1286.)

The judgment is affirmed.
