California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Elwood, G052495 (Cal. App. 2017):
Elwood and Hutton request this court conduct an independent review of the sealed records the trial court reviewed in camera. The Attorney General does not object to the request. An appellate court "routinely independently examines the sealed records of such in camera hearings to determine whether the trial court abused its discretion in denying a defendant's motion for disclosure." (People v. Prince (2007) 40 Cal.4th 1179, 1285.) We have reviewed the sealed records in this case and found no additional discoverable records.
The judgments are affirmed.
