Williams v. Superior Court ( 1983 )


Menu:
  • RICHARDSON, J.

    I concur in the judgment. Certain factors, including the nature and gravity of the offense, and the extensive local publicity devoted to the murder trial of defendant’s brother for the same offense, distinguish this case from Martinez v. Superior Court (1981) 29 Cal.3d 574 [174 Cal.Rptr. 701, 629 P.2d 502], in which I dissented. Unlike the situation in Martinez, a venue change seems appropriate here.
