“In California, a party is incompetent if he or she lacks the capacity to understand the nature or consequences of the proceeding, or is unable to assist counsel in the preparation of the case.” Golden Gate Way, LLC v. Stewart, No. 09–04458, 2012 WL 4482053, at *2 (N.D. Cal.
California law adopts a broad view of relevance, and a state court of appeal has emphasized a trial judge’s “duty ... to clearly bring out the facts.” In re Conservatorship of Pamela J., 133 Cal.
