What is the test for a motion for review for prejudice?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Jackson, F069966 (Cal. App. 2018):

Appellants contend that the trial court's rulings were prejudicial, and denied them certain constitutional guarantees, such as the right to present a defense. They claim a review for prejudice should occur pursuant to the federal standard under Chapman v. California (1967) 386 U.S. 18. We disagree.
