California Court of Appeal
People v. Scally, 050444
Conviction for pimping, Penal Code section 266i(a), is affirmed over defendant's claims that the court erred by permitting the People's expert to testify that certain text messages sent from defendant to individuals other than the particular prostitute at issue were consistent with pimping activity, where the evidence was relevant to rebut the defense that the prostitute was merely defendant's girlfriend, a nonpropensity basis for relevance.
