California Court of Appeal

People v. Cannedy, A120293

In the state's appeal from the trial court's order granting defendant's motion to recuse the Alameda County District Attorney's office pursuant to Cal. Penal Code section 1424, the order is reversed where the fact that an employee of the district attorney's office might be a witness did not justify disqualifying the entire office.
