What is the standard of review for destroying evidence in bad faith?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Dominguez, B254240 (Cal. App. 2015):

not established that the prosecution team had destroyed the evidence in bad faith. Defendant argues that this ruling was erroneous. The standard of review for such claims is unsettled (People v. Velasco (2011) 194 Cal.App.4th 1258, 1262), but we reject defendant's claim even under a de novo review standard.
