Overview: The litigation privilege of Civ. Code, § 47, and Code Civ.

Overview: In a proceeding in which appellant was declared a mentally disordered offender, where there was no evidence jury could see appellant's leg restraint or the single wrist cuff he wore on the first day of trial, use of restraints, even if erroneous, did not hinder his ability to represent himself or deny him a fair trial.

Overview: Trial court wrongly denied motion of criminal defendant's surety to vacate a summary judgment entered against it in a bond forfeiture proceeding and to exonerate the bond brought more than 185 days after the notice of forfeiture because Pen. Code, § 1305, subd. (c)(3), imposed no time constraints on a surety to make a motion to exonerate the bond.
