Does a defendant have a right to raise the issue of improperly admitted evidence on appeal?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Dasher, 198 Cal.App.3d 28, 243 Cal.Rptr. 486 (Cal. App. 1988):
"The admissibility of evidence will not be reviewed on appeal in the absence of a proper objection in the trial court." (People v. Johnson (1967) 253 Cal.App.2d 396, 400, 61 Cal.Rptr. 225; see also Evid.Code, 353.) Dasher has waived any right to raise the issue of improperly admitted evidence of other crimes.
