Heading: Absence of Written Findings

Text: Defendant claims that California's death penalty law is unconstitutional because it does not require the jury to make a written statement of findings and reasons for its death verdict. This court has consistently rejected this claim (e.g., People v. Gray, supra, 37 Cal.4th at p. 236, 33 Cal.Rptr.3d 451, 118 P.3d 496; People v. Cornwell, supra, 37 Cal.4th at p. 105, 33 Cal.Rptr.3d 1, 117 P.3d 622; People v. Morrison, supra, 34 Cal.4th at pp. 730-731, 21 Cal.Rptr.3d 682, 101 P.3d 568), and defendant does not persuade us to reconsider these decisions.
