P. v. Mizrahi
In an information filed by the Los Angeles District Attorney on April 18, 2006, appellant Samuel Mizrahi was charged with one count of possession of a controlled substance (Count I, Health & Saf. Code, 11350, subd. (a)); one count of battery with injury on a peace officer (Count II, Pen. Code, 243, subd. (c)(2);[1]and three counts of resisting arrest (Counts III, IV, and V, 148, subd. (a)(1)). Appellant pled not guilty as to all counts. Prior to trial, appellant filed a Pitchess[2]motion for discovery of peace officer records, which was granted by the trial court on June 8, 2006. On that date, the trial court reviewed personnel records in camera and found discoverable material.
Appellant timely filed a notice of appeal. Specifically, he asks us to make an independent review of the sealed transcript of the trial courts in camera hearing on his Pitchess motion to determine whether any discoverable material was improperly withheld from him. That information includes any relevant complaints, whether sustained or otherwise, against the four peace officers involved in appellants arrest.
The judgment is affirmed.
