The following excerpt is from Persons Coming Under the Juvenile Court Law. San Francisco Human Servs. Agency v. D.G. (In re T. K.), A149330 (Cal. App. 2017):
Recognizing courts' wide discretion over the admission of evidence (People v. Lawley (2002) 27 Cal.4th 102, 155), appellant argues that the testimony the proposed witness would have given was relevant and admissible, and, with respect to the juvenile court's discretion to exclude evidence under Evidence Code section 352, that it would not have "necessitate[d] an undue consumption of time" or "create[d] substantial danger of undue prejudice" or "of confusing the issues." (Evid. Code, 352.)
