California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Coleman, C078570 (Cal. App. 2015):

We provide the following brief description of the facts and procedural history of the case. (See People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal.4th 106, 110, 124.) Defendant and the victim were in an intermittent relationship for approximately eight years, and he was the father of one of the victim's daughters and of her unborn child. They were not in a relationship on February 16, 2014, when the victim allowed defendant to come to her home to visit his daughter and the victim's other daughter. He spent the night, and on the evening of February 17, 2014, he called the victim and wanted to return to her home. The victim did not want him to return because they had argued the night before. Nevertheless, she allowed him to return on the evening of February 17, 2014.
