The following excerpt is from People v. Villagrana, B220061, Los Angeles County Super. Ct. No. NA071730 (Cal. App. 2011):
Defendant failed to object to or seek clarification of the trial court's express statement that it would use CALCRIM No. 875 to define assault with a deadly weapon. Given that omission the claim was not preserved for appellate review and is forfeited. (See People v. Cleveland(2004) 32 Cal.4th 704, 705; People v. Palmer (2005) 133 Cal.App.4th 1141, 1156.)
