Lucero v. Super. Ct.
Monique Lucero petitions for a writ of mandate compelling the trial court to grant her Pitchess[1] motion on the basis that she demonstrated good cause for the discovery. The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) asserts that there is no good cause for discovery and that discovery of the requested records is barred by Evidence Code[2] section 1047 because the officer who is the subject of the motion was not involved in Lucero’s arrest or detention. We find section 1047 inapplicable to this case because the alleged officer misconduct does not involve Lucero’s arrest or detention.
