The following excerpt is from People v. Lujan, B278711 (Cal. App. 2018):
Defendant's claim of ineffective assistance of counsel must also fail. To prevail on a claim of ineffective assistance of counsel, defendant must demonstrate a reasonable probability that the outcome of the case would have been different if counsel had not erred. (Strickland v. Washington (1984) 466 U.S. 668, 686, 694.) As there is no reasonable likelihood that the jurors had an improper or erroneous understanding of the prosecutor's remarks, defendant has failed to meet his burden.
