P. v. Manuel CA1/3
This is an appeal from judgment after a jury convicted defendant Jim Manuel of 24 counts of committing a lewd act on a 15-year-old child when defendant was at least 10 years older than the child (Pen. Code, § 288, subd. (c)(1)). According to defendant, the trial court committed reversible error because its instruction to the jury on consideration of other, uncharged sexual acts against a minor lessened the prosecution’s burden of proof, and because its exclusion of key evidence relevant to the victim’s credibility deprived him of the opportunity to mount a full defense. We affirm.
