Can we agree that the certificate of probable cause statute makes a distinction between appeals raising issues that are at least partially factual?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Marquez, F078242 (Cal. App. 2020):
Nor can we agree with People v. Corban (2006) 138 Cal.App.4th 1111, which distinguished between appeals raising "purely legal argument[s]" versus appeals raising issues that are "at least partially factual." (Id. at pp. 1116-1117.) Nothing in the certificate of probable cause statute supports such a distinction. ( 1237.5.)
