P. v. Jones CA1/2
Appellant Robert Wayne Jones appeals from the trial court’s order extending his involuntary commitment at Atascadero State Hospital for one year, as a mentally disordered offender (MDO). He contends the court violated both state evidentiary law and his due process right to confrontation when it permitted three experts to testify at his trial to case-specific facts based on inadmissible hearsay. Because we find that appellant was not prejudiced by the erroneous admission of case-specific hearsay, we shall affirm the trial court’s order extending his commitment.
