§ 29703 Evidence Admissibility Across Counties

• •If a cop finds proof of a crime in one county, that proof can be used in court in another county.
• •Evidence doesn’t have to stay where it was found—it can follow the case anywhere in the state.
• •This helps catch bad guys even if they commit crimes in different places.

A cop in Los Angeles finds stolen tools in a van during a traffic stop.

Even if the tools were stolen in San Diego, the cop’s evidence can be used in a San Diego court to prove the theft.
