California Court of Appeal
People v. Superior Court (Jones), 074028
Held that a district attorney must turn over to defense habeas counsel the prosecution's jury selection notes, which were referenced during a Batson/Wheeler hearing by a prosecutor offering a neutral reason for exercising a peremptory strike. These materials were discoverable here as part of writ of habeas corpus discovery. Rejected the district attorney's assertion of work product privilege.
