California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Burgener, 129 Cal.Rptr.2d 747, 29 Cal.4th 833, 62 P.3d 1 (Cal. 2003):
Defendant argues that, considered cumulatively, the errors in jury selection violated his right to a fair trial. Because we have found no errors, his claim of cumulative error fails. (People v. Seaton (2001) 26 Cal.4th 598, 639, 110 Cal.Rptr.2d 441, 28 P.3d 175.)
