What is the test for reasonable foreseeability?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Reyes, H041671 (Cal. App. 2017):
reasonably foreseeable consequence of the act aided and abetted.' " [Citation.] Reasonable foreseeability "is a factual issue to be resolved by the jury." [Citation.]' (People v. Chiu, supra, 59 Cal.4th at pp. 161-162.)" The critical point of fact for the jury's determination is therefore whether the nontarget crime "was a natural and probable, i.e., reasonably foreseeable, consequence of the target crime." (Id. at p. 613.)
