Sanchez v. City of Los Angeles, B182835, COURT OF APPEAL OF CALIFORNIA, SECOND APPELLATE DISTRICT, DIVISION THREE, June 26, 2006, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: One-year statute of limitations in Gov. Code, § 3304, subd. (d), barred a police department's punitive action of downgrading an officer's pay grade position because the only disciplinary action proposed by the department within one year of discovering the operative facts was a 20-day suspension and the paperwork at that time eschewed a downgrade.

Turlock Irrigation Dist. v. Zanker, F047094, COURT OF APPEAL OF CALIFORNIA, FIFTH APPELLATE DISTRICT, June 26, 2006, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Because no price for the sale of water was specified in a contract that conveyed an appropriative water right to two water districts and that provided for a continuing water supply for a town's needs, Wat. Code, § 22280, subd. (c), empowered the districts to determine the price, which included the cost of treating the water.
