The following excerpt is from People v. Ortiz, B257413 (Cal. App. 2016):
A defendant may petition the court for access to the jurors' personal identifying information in order to communicate with jurors for the purpose of developing a motion for new trial. (Code Civ. Proc., 206, subd. (g).) The request must be supported by a declaration that includes facts establishing good cause for the release of the information. (Code Civ. Proc., 237, subd. (b).) We review for abuse of discretion the trial court's ruling on a motion for disclosure of juror information. (People v. Johnson (2013) 222 Cal.App.4th 486, 492.)
