California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Stevenson, A149253 (Cal. App. 2017):
Evidence Code section 352 requires the exclusion of evidence "if its probative value is substantially outweighed by the probability that its admission will (a) necessitate undue consumption of time or (b) create substantial danger of undue prejudice, of confusing the issues, or of misleading the jury." A trial court has broad discretion to admit or exclude evidence under Evidence Code section 352. (People v. Pollock (2004) 32 Cal.4th 1153, 1171.)
