How have courts dealt with the contention of error where the error was reversible per se?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Creech, C083662 (Cal. App. 2018):
Defendant instead claims the error is reversible per se based on the jurisdictional argument we have just rejected. We disagree, and absent an explicit argument how the claimed mistake caused prejudice, the contention of error fails. (See People v. Nero (2010) 181 Cal.App.4th 504, 510, fn. 11; People v. Coley (1997) 52 Cal.App.4th 964, 972.)
