The following excerpt is from People v. Blackman, D072761 (Cal. App. 2018):
"The principles governing the admission of evidence are well settled. Only relevant evidence is admissible (Evid. Code, 210, 350), 'and all relevant evidence is admissible unless excluded under the federal or California Constitution or by statute. (Evid. Code, 351; see also Cal. Const., art. I, 28, subd. (d).)' " (People v. Harris (2005) 37 Cal.4th 310, 337 (Harris).) Relevant evidence is evidence "having any tendency in reason to prove or disprove any disputed fact that is of consequence to the determination of the action." (Evid. Code, 210.)
