Does a cumulative effect of errors resulting in errors requiring reversal require reversal?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Roessler, C078697 (Cal. App. 2018):

Defendant contends that, even if errors individually do not require reversal, the cumulative effect of the errors requires reversal. The contention is without merit because there was no error. (People v. Hovarter (2008) 44 Cal.4th 983, 1030.)
