The following excerpt is from People v. Harvey, B226201 (Cal. App. 2011):
2. The Attorney General asserts that defendant forfeited his right to challenge CALCRIM No. 330 on appeal because he did not object to it at trial. We deal with the argument because defendant's contentions address the substantial rights of an accused. ( 1259; People v. Brown (2003) 31 Cal.4th 518, 539, fn. 7.)
