Legal Research Home > California Lawyer > Evidence Code > California Evidence Code Section 352.1

In any criminal proceeding under Section 261, 262, or 264.1,
subdivision (d) of Section 286, or subdivision (d) of Section 288a
of the Penal Code, or in any criminal proceeding under subdivision
(c) of Section 286 or subdivision (c) of Section 288a of the Penal
Code in which the defendant is alleged to have compelled the
participation of the victim by force, violence, duress, menace, or
threat of great bodily harm, the district attorney may, upon written
motion with notice to the defendant or the defendant's attorney, if
he or she is represented by an attorney, within a reasonable time
prior to any hearing, move to exclude from evidence the current
address and telephone number of any victim at the hearing.
   The court may order that evidence of the victim's current address
and telephone number be excluded from any hearings conducted pursuant
to the criminal proceeding if the court finds that the probative
value of the evidence is outweighed by the creation of substantial
danger to the victim.
   Nothing in this section shall abridge or limit the defendant's
right to discover or investigate the information.
