California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Reed, C071276 (Cal. App. 2015):
We review a trial court's rulings on the admissibility of evidence for abuse of discretion. (People v. McCurdy (2014) 59 Cal.4th 1063, 1095.) We will not disturb the trial court's ruling "except on a showing the trial court exercised its discretion in an arbitrary, capricious, or patently absurd manner that resulted in a manifest miscarriage of justice." (People v. Rodriguez (1999) 20 Cal.4th 1, 9-10.)
