COURT OF APPEAL OF CALIFORNIA, FOURTH APPELLATE DISTRICT, DIVISION THREE, February 28, 2007, Filed
View this case - free
|
Overview: Trial court could not dismiss a debt collection action pursuant to an order to show cause (OSC) after the creditor validly exercised its right under Code Civ. Proc., § 581, subd. (b)(1), to dismiss voluntarily; the pendency of the OSC was not equivalent to the commencement of trial under § 581, subd. (a)(6), because dismissal was not inevitable.

COURT OF APPEAL OF CALIFORNIA, FIRST APPELLATE DISTRICT, DIVISION TWO, February 28, 2007, Filed
View this case - free
|
Overview: In a case arising from a death in a police shooting, the trial court erred by reducing the recovery of the deceased's family by the percent of fault allocated to city by a jury, after a finding that sovereign immunity barred the city's direct negligence, because the city was not a tortfeasor; thus multiple-defendant principles were inapplicable.

People v. Mays, D046696,
COURT OF APPEAL OF CALIFORNIA, FOURTH APPELLATE DISTRICT, DIVISION ONE, February 28, 2007, Filed
View this case - free
|
Overview: Evidence was sufficient to convict a defendant who ran an escort service of money laundering under Pen. Code, § 186.10, subd. (a), because it showed deposits of $ 5,000 in criminally-derived cash in a 10-day period. Although there was evidence that some activities were legal, the escort and prostitution businesses were inextricably intertwined.
