The following excerpt is from People v. Rodriguez, F066505 (Cal. App. 2014):
12. Section 1108 is a "parallel provision" to section 1109. (People v. Villatoro (2012) 54 Cal.4th 1152, 1162.) The two provisions "can properly be read together as complementary portions of the same statutory scheme." (People v. Brown (2000) 77 Cal.App.4th 1324, 1333.)
