What is the test for a proper petition for possession of stolen property?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Sherow, 191 Cal.Rptr.3d 295, 239 Cal.App.4th 875 (Cal. App. 2015):
A proper petition could certainly contain at least Sherow's testimony about the nature of the items taken. If he made the initial showing the court can take such action as appropriate to grant the petition or permit further factual determination. (People v. Bradford (2014) 227 Cal.App.4th 1322, 1341, 174 Cal.Rptr.3d 499.)
