Is a plaintiff's claim for medical malpractice forfeited as a result of his failure to object to the testimony?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Ramos, 2d Crim. No. B244670 (Cal. App. 2014):
Appellant did not object to the testimony when it was given or seek a curative instruction, so his claim is forfeited. (People v. Gamache (2010) 48 Cal.4th 347, 371.) This is not a case in which a timely objection to the alleged misconduct would have been futile. (See People v. Fuiava (2012) 53 Cal.4th 622, 680.)
