How has the Attorney General argued that a defendant waived equal protection by failing to raise the issue at trial?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Petronella, G044628 (Cal. App. 2013):
Initially, the Attorney General correctly notes defendant waived the issue by failing to raise it in the trial court. (People v. Pecci (1999) 72 Cal.App.4th 1500, 1503 [claim that the defendant's ineligibility for probation violated equal protection waived by not objecting on that ground in trial court].) But even on the merits his argument is unpersuasive.
