“[T]he burden of establishing that the evidence is material is met when the defendant shows that there is `a reasonable possibility that the evidence ... would have constituted favorable evidence on the issue of guilt or innocence. ( People v. Hitch, supra, 12 Cal.3d at p. 649 .)' [Citations.] This burden is met when the evidence by its nature could reasonably be used to impeach the credibility of the prosecution witness' testimony regarding the evidence.”
