Is a defendant's failure to object below to the amount of fines set by the Court of Appeal forfeited the contention on appeal?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Armogeda, G051197 (Cal. App. 2016):
Because the fines were lawful under current law and the law in effect in January 2011, defendant's failure to object below to the court's exercise of its discretion in setting the amount of the fines has forfeited the contention on appeal. (People v. Garcia (2010) 185 Cal.App.4th 1203, 1218 [when fines imposed by court are permitted by law, the defendant's failure to object below forfeits challenge on appeal].)
