Overview: The provision in Civ. Code, § 2527, that required drug claims processors to transmit a study of pharmacy fees to third party payors violated the free speech provision of Cal. Const., art. I, § 2. The trial court properly granted the processors' special motion to strike and awarded them attorney fees under the anti-SLAPP statute.

COURT OF APPEAL OF CALIFORNIA, SECOND APPELLATE DISTRICT, DIVISION TWO, April 27, 2006, Filed
View this case - free
|
Overview: Regardless of whether an indorsement on a check was forged, unauthorized, or missing, plaintiffs' remedy against a bank lay only in a conversion action under Cal. U. Com. Code, § 3420, which superseded plaintiffs' negligence claim. Thus, the bank's demurrer to plaintiffs' negligence cause of action was properly sustained.

|
Overview: Failure to instruct jury that it had to find existence of tax deficiency as element of felony income tax evasion, Rev. & Tax. Code, § 19706, was not harmless error; if defendant had known ahead of time about tax deficiency requirement and its concomitant defense, he might have put on stronger case as to proof of claimed deductions and expenses.

People v. Pilster, G035130,
COURT OF APPEAL OF CALIFORNIA, FOURTH APPELLATE DISTRICT, DIVISION THREE, April 27, 2006, Filed
View this case - free
|
Overview: In an assault case, because the prosecution used defendant's custodial statements for impeachment purposes, defendant was entitled to CALJIC No. 2.13.1, which informed the jury it could consider his statements only on the issue of his credibility. Any error in failing to give the instruction, however, was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt.
