California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Stewart, C074218 (Cal. App. 2015):
This does not preserve his claim on appeal. The failure to raise a timely and specific objection to the admission of evidence forfeits the objection on appeal. (People v. Doolin (2009) 45 Cal.4th 390, 438.)
Anticipating our ruling, defendant claims trial counsel was ineffective in failing to object to the federal priors.
