P. v. Mejia CA6
Defendant Denis Javier Mejia appeals following his conviction by a jury of eight counts of forcible lewd conduct against a child under the age of 14 years. He contends the trial court committed reversible error by removing a sitting juror for bias. He also raises a prosecutorial misconduct claim, a related ineffective assistance of counsel claim, and challenges an order requiring him to pay a portion of his defense costs. Finally, he requests that we review the victim’s confidential school records, to which the trial court denied him access following an in camera review, to determine whether the trial court’s denial constituted an abuse of discretion.
