My two questions involve criminal law in The State of California.
1. In a criminal case, under what circumstances is the court and/or one of the parties allowed to rely upon case law from a civil proceeding as precedent?
I've always wondered this. Occasionally while reading a criminal court case or writing it will cite a civil case as applicable law.
2. In a criminal case, under what circumstance is the court and/or one of the parties allowed to rely upon the Civil Code of Procedures?
An example of this would be PCs. Even for criminal cases they are governed CCP 170.6.
