Legal Question in Criminal Law in California
confidential informants
what are the criteria for a judge to seal a statement from a--name removed--I. and not allow an attorney or the defendant to challenge or guestion the validity of the informant's statement? The statement in the police report made by the--name removed--I. is at best only allusions and heresay.
Thank you

Re: confidential informants
Standard practice should not surprise you. Instead of asking for free advice whether it is ok, deal with your attorney to file appropriate motions to quash. Feel free to contact me if interested in hiring legal counsel to do so, if in SoCal courts.
