Discovery: prosecutorial duty to disclose information.

Abstract

Existing law requires the prosecuting attorney to disclose to the defendant or his or her attorney certain materials and information, including statements of all defendants and any exculpatory evidence, as specified. This bill would authorize a court in any criminal trial or proceeding in which the court has determined that the prosecuting attorney has intentionally or knowingly failed to disclose certain materials and information, as specified, to instruct the jury that the failure to disclose has occurred and that the jury shall consider the failure to disclose in determining whether reasonable doubt of the defendant's guilt exists.
