HICKS.

No. S232218.

Supreme Court of California

March 23, 2016.

The petition for review is granted. The issue to be briefed and argued is limited to whether the trial court erred when it refused to inform the jury at the retrial of a murder charge that defendant had been convicted of gross vehicular manslaughter in the first trial. (Compare People v. Batchelor (2014) 229 Cal.App.4th 1102, 178 Cal.Rptr.3d 28.) (Cal. Rules of Court, rule 8.516(a)(1).)
