The following excerpt is from People v. Avila, C072432 (Cal. App. 2015):
During the instruction conference, defendant requested that the court further instruct the jury that a failure to register is not "willful" when it is "the result of misinformation or lack of transportation." Defendant contended this would be a proper instruction under People v. Johnson (1998) 67 Cal.App.4th 67, 73 ["The instructions given by the trial court permitted the jury to find that defendant's failure to register was not willful, but rather the result of misinformation and lack of transportation."].
