California v. Clark
Annotate this CaseDefendant Robert Clark appealed his conviction for second degree murder and true findings on the associated firearm enhancements. He argued the trial court erred by inquiring into the identity of a holdout juror and subsequently dismissing that juror, as well as by failing to grant his motion for a new trial based on juror misconduct. He also argued the trial court was biased against him, thus violating his right to due process and a fair trial. After review of the trial court record, the Court of Appeal disagreed and affirmed defendant's conviction.
