In People v. Balderas (1985) 41 Cal.3d 144, the defendant robbed the decedent. The decedent resisted. The defendant then shot the decedent. The court held that anger occurring when a victim resists during the perpetration of a crime is not provocation for voluntary manslaughter purposes: "This court has concluded, under similar circumstances and without extended discussion, that 'predictable conduct by a resisting victim' of a felony cannot 'constitute the kind of provocation sufficient to reduce a murder charge to voluntary manslaughter. . . .' " ( Id. at pp. 196-197.)
