California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from The People v. Peterson, B217407, No. GA071758 (Cal. App. 2010):
The standard of review for a claim of erroneous exclusion of admissible evidence is abuse of discretion. (People v. Dean (2009) 174 Cal.App.4th 186." 'As a general matter, a trial court is vested with broad discretion in ruling on the admissibility of evidence. The court's ruling will be upset only if there is a clear showing of an abuse of discretion, i.e., that the court exceeded the bounds of reason.' [Citation.]" (Id. at p. 193.)
