How have courts interpreted the natural and probable consequences doctrine on a motion for habeas relief?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Spivey v. Rocha, 194 F.3d 971 (9th Cir. 1999):
People v. Curry, 192 Cal.App.2d 664, 674-75, 13 Cal.Rptr. 596, 602 (1961) (citing cases). Because the trial court's instruction on the natural and probable consequences doctrine was a correct statement of law, we deny Spivey's request for habeas relief on this claim.
