California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Valenzuela, 130 Cal.App.3d 903, 182 Cal.Rptr. 160 (Cal. App. 1982):
Initially, we note that no objections were made to the admission of the testimony complained of; hence, under Evidence Code section 353, subdivision (a), and People v. Terry, 38 Cal.App.3d 432, 443, 113 Cal.Rptr. 233, the issue is not cognizable on appeal.
