PEOPLE v. BUCHANAN
Trial court properly found that defendant did not establish prima facie case of group bias during jury selection in which all three prosecution peremptory challenges were to potential jurors with Hispanic surnames, where defendant accepted the jury without objection after one sidebar conference, numerous Hispanics remained on the panel of prospective jurors, and there was nothing in the record demonstrating the ethnicity of potential jurors, challenged jurors, or seated jurors other than the list of their names. Judment Affirmed.
