People v. Sangani

In People v. Sangani (1994) 22 Cal.App.4th 1120, the defendants were convicted following a bench trial with dumping and recklessly storing hazardous waste. (Sangani, supra, 22 Cal.App.4th 1138.) On appeal, one of the defendants contended the trial court applied an improper standard in holding him personally liable for the illegal conduct because the People misstated the standard during argument. (Ibid.) In rejecting this claim, the Sangani court noted the defendant had not pointed to a single statement by the trial court which suggested it had applied the wrong standard. (Ibid.)
