What is the consequence of defendant failing to raise a timely objection at trial?

California, United States of America

The following excerpt is from The People v. Brown, E048673, No. FVA701587 (Cal. App. 2010):

The People contend that any issue concerning the admissibility of the photographs was forfeited because defendant failed to raise a timely objection at trial. (Evid. Code, 353; see also People v. Martinez (2010) 47 Cal.4th 911, 961 [the capital defendant's claims that testimony was irrelevant and violated the Eighth Amendment and his rights to due process and a fair trial were forfeited on appeal because at trial his counsel had objected only on Evidence Code section 352 grounds].) We agree that defendant has forfeited his challenge to the photographs.

The judgment is affirmed.
