Within three weeks after being paroled from state prison, where he had been serving a sentence for voluntary manslaughter, defendant killed three more people: two with a shotgun, and one by strangulation and stabbing. At trial, the disputed issues largely concerned defendant's mental states and the existence of mitigating circumstances warranting a punishment other than death. After his convictions, the first jury was unable to reach a penalty verdict. During voir dire for the penalty retrial, the prosecutor revealed an acute sensitivity to the presence of Hispanics on the jury panel and an evident belief that Hispanics would not be favorable jurors for the prosecution. Responding to defendant's Wheeler motions, the prosecutor offered different reasons for exercise of his peremptory challenges. After rejecting defendant's various challenges to the guilt phase of the trial, the court affirmed the convictions. However, the court reversed the sentence of death, holding that the trial court's denial of the Wheeler motions unreasonable in light of the record; a record which showed the prosecutor improperly excused at least one juror because of his Hispanic ancestry.

The court affirmed the judgment as to the guilt verdicts and the special circumstance finding, but reversed as to the sentence of death.

Defendants, several mobilehome dealers, park managers, and owners, appealed an order from the Superior Court of Los Angeles County (California), which denied their motion for attorney fees under Civ. Code, § 798.85, after plaintiff mobilehome dealer voluntarily dismissed antitrust, unfair competition, and other claims against them.

The complaint alleged an illegal kickback scheme in connection with mobilehome sales. Some defendants were voluntarily dismissed after a misjoinder argument was raised. The trial court concluded that the parties who had been dismissed were the prevailing parties as defined in § 798.85 but that they were not entitled to fees because the case did not arise out of the Mobilehome Residency Law (MRL), Civ. Code, § 798 et seq. The reviewing court affirmed, concluding that the parties' dispute was not one within the scope of the MRL, which governed the landlord-tenant relationship between mobilehome park owners and residents. Although some of the allegations in the operative complaint dealt with purported wrongful activity that affected park residents and homeowners, such as illegal eviction of park tenants, the complaining dealer sought to protect its own economic interests and did not act to protect the tenants' interests. Because the case did not involve a landlord/tenant dispute, it did not arise in the context of the relationships and claims addressed by the MRL, and the trial court's denial of attorney fees was therefore proper.

The court affirmed the trial court's order.

Appellant dentist challenged the decision of the trial court that denied his motion for preliminary injunction to enjoin respondent board of dental examiners from ordering him to submit to a psychiatric examination pursuant to Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code § 820. Appellant contended that his due process rights were violated by respondent's order, and that § 820 was unconstitutional in that it included no reasonable cause standards or guidelines. The court determined that appellant's due process rights were not violated, as the purpose of the exam was investigatory. The court further held that investigation was confidential, appellant's risk of deprivation was remote as any discipline would be the result of a separate adjudicatory hearing accompanied by due process protections, and appellant had full opportunity for rebuttal at the hearing. Additionally the court determined that respondent's interest would be severely impacted by requiring full due process protections for every preliminary investigation. The court also held that the respondent's petition established reasonable cause to order the evaluation. Accordingly the decision was affirmed.

The order compelling was affirmed because the exam was investigatory and confidential and respondent was statutorily permitted to advance its investigatory function without compromising appellant's right to due process.

Appellant hospital sought review of an order by the Superior Court of Alameda County (California), which compelled compliance with a subpoena for peer review records issued by respondent Medical Board of California. That appeal was consolidated with petitions for extraordinary relief by appellant drug treatment institutes as to orders of respondent which compelled compliance with subpoenas for medical documents relative to the same patient.

Appellants, hospital and drug treatment institutes, sought review of orders compelling compliance with medical record subpoenas issued by respondent Medical Board of California. The court initially held that the order as to appellant hospital was appealable as a final decision in a special proceeding because Cal. Gov't Code § 11187 did not prohibit appeal. The court affirmed respondent trial court's order as to appellant hospital because the protection for peer review records under Cal. Evid. Code § 1157 was not intended to intrude upon the investigatory authority granted respondent board. The court vacated the order as to appellant institutes because the records were protected under 42 U.S.C.S. § 290ee-3. Respondent board's stated interest in the doctor's abilitly to practice failed to establish good cause for disclosure where the records addressed treatment two years earlier, and respondent board had failed to follow its own doctor's recommendation that the doctor be presently evaluated. The records were also protected under Cal. Health & Safety Code § 11977 because respondent board was investigating present competence rather than disciplinary proceedings.

The court affirmed the grant of respondent Medical Board of California's motion to compel compliance with a subpoena issued to appellant hospital. The court ordered issuance of a peremptory writ of mandate directing respondent court to vacate its order granting the motion to compel disclosure of records as to appellant treatment institutes and to issue a new order denying the motion because the records were protected by state and federal law.

The employer alleged that the former employee misappropriated confidential and secret business information from the employer and used that information to compete with the employer. The former employee's attorney identified as percipient witnesses and subsequently interviewed a sales manager and a production department supervisor who worked for the employer. The employer filed a motion to disqualify counsel. The trial court granted the motion, finding that attorney-client privilege had been compromised and that Cal. R. Prof. Conduct 2-100 had been violated. The court held to the contrary, determining that Rule 2-100(B)(1) did not prohibit contacts with employees other than officers, directors, and managing agents. Rule 2-100(B)(2) applied to management-level employees who had actual authority to speak on behalf of the organization or who could bind it, within the meaning of Cal. Evid. Code § 1222, with regard to the subject matter of the litigation. The two interviewed employees were not managing agents because they did not exercise substantial discretionary authority over organizational policymaking and could not make admissions binding on the organization.

The court issued a writ of mandate directing the trial court to vacate its order disqualifying the former employee's attorney.

Petitioner physician had his license to practice medicine revoked by respondent board of medical examiners (board). The physician then challenged the revocation of his license in the Superior Court of the City and County of San Francisco (California), which reversed the board's order after it determined that the revocation was an abuse of the board's discretion. The board appealed.

The trial court determined that an unlawful search and seizure occurred, and the evidence presented to the board was produced and obtained as a result. The court held that the exclusionary rule applied to the administrative hearing because the hearing contemplated the deprivation of a license that was recognized as a property right. The court further held that the record failed to reflect an unlawful search and seizure. The arrest of the physician's nurse was valid, and the search that occurred was, therefore, lawful and not unreasonable. The court also held that the documents that were seized at the time of the arrest of the nurse were not received into evidence at the hearing and the evidence that was admitted at the hearing was not the tainted fruit of the documents that had been seized. The court went on to hold that there was no prejudicial error in receiving the patients' waivers and admitting their record cards into evidence because the waivers were valid, and therefore, the physician-patient privilege did not apply. Finally, the court determined that the appropriate remedy was the discharge of the writ of mandamus granted by the trial court.

The court reversed the trial court's judgment with directions to deny the petition and to discharge the alternative writ.

An action to recover damages for fraud in inducing the purchase of realty by misrepresentations as to the character of the land was barred where the facts showed that the plaintiff had knowledge of the fraud more than three years prior to the commencement of the action.

Edwards v. Sergi (CalifLaw Mar. 14, 1934), 137 CalifLaw 369, 30 P.2d 541, 1934 CalifLawCALIFLAW 816.

The plaintiffs in an action for damages for fraud in procuring their consent to the sale of oil lands were not bound to make an investigation until they had knowledge of facts which would put them on a duty of inquiry. Anglo California Nat'l Bank v. Lazard (9th Cir. Cal. Sept. 7, 1939), 106 F.2d 693, 1939 U.S. App. CALIFLAW 4722, cert. denied, (U.S. Jan. 2, 1940), 308 U.S. 624, 60 S. Ct. 379, 84 L. Ed. 521, 1940 U.S. CALIFLAW 1034.

In an action for fraud in the sale of a house, the statute of limitations had not run, even though the action was filed more than three years after the date of purchase, where the structural defects were concealed by fresh paint, and the fraud was not discovered until a date less than three years before the filing of the action, because there had been no hard rains, which would have disclosed leaks in the building, between the date of the purchase and the date of discovery of the fraud. Herzog v. Capital Co. (Cal. Dec. 11, 1945), 27 Cal. 2d 349, 164 P.2d 8, 1945 Cal. CALIFLAW 241.

In action for fraud and misrepresentation in connection with the sale of a restaurant business of defendant, a finding that the plaintiff’s cause of action was not barred by the statute of limitations was supported by evidence that, during most of the year following the sale, defendant permitted plaintiff to continue in the restaurant, sharing the profits; that defendant and his wife continued to assure plaintiff that arrangements were being made to pay him the amount promised him; and that plaintiff’s claims were not repudiated until defendant changed the lock on the restaurant’s door and refused to recognize the plaintiff’s claims. Karallis v. Shenas (CalifLaw Oct. 23, 1944), 66 CalifLaw 2d 475, 152 P.2d 499, 1944 CalifLawCALIFLAW 1204.

An action for fraudulent representations inducing the plaintiff to make a loan ostensibly for the benefit of a corporation in bankruptcy, but actually for the benefit of the defendants, was not barred by the statute of limitations where the complaint was filed within three years after the complainant learned for the first time that his attorney, one of the defendants on whose representations he chiefly relied, had also been an attorney and director of the defendant corporation which had previously filed suit against the bankrupt corporation. Merchants' Ice & Cold Storage Co. v. Globe Brewing Co. (CalifLaw Apr. 3, 1946), 73 CalifLaw 2d 828, 167 P.2d 503, 1946 CalifLawCALIFLAW 1338, 1946 CalifLawCALIFLAW 911.

An action to recover damages resulting from the purchase of lands induced by false representations as to the amount of water for irrigation was barred where brought more than three years after the misrepresentations and after discovery thereof, the fact that each year the plaintiffs complained to the defendants of the insufficiency of the water and the latter promising each time to furnish the water the next year not being sufficient to extend the period of the statute. Trail v. Firth (Cal. June 6, 1921), 186 Cal. 68, 198 P. 1033, 1921 Cal. CALIFLAW 414.

An action in mandamus must be commenced within three years after the cause of action has accrued. Dillon v. Board of Pension Comm'rs (Cal. Aug. 18, 1941), 18 Cal. 2d 427, 116 P.2d 37, 1941 Cal. CALIFLAW 379.

The three-year statute of limitations applicable to a liability created by statute under CCP § 338(1), is applicable to actions in mandamus. Pena v. City of Los Angeles (CalifLaw 2d Dist. May 28, 1970), 8 CalifLaw 3d 257, 87 Cal. Rptr. 326, 1970 CalifLawCALIFLAW 2037.

The statute of limitations on a mandamus proceeding begins to run when the petitioner’s right first accrues. Monroe v. Trustees of California State Colleges (Cal. Dec. 30, 1971), 6 Cal. 3d 399, 99 Cal. Rptr. 129, 491 P.2d 1105, 1971 Cal. CALIFLAW 228.

A petition for a writ of mandamus seeking to enforce a city’s obligation to submit its utility tax to a public vote, an obligation based on the statutory provisions created by Prop. 62, was not barred by the applicable three-year statute of limitations (CCP § 338(a)), even though the utility tax was imposed in 1991 and the petition was filed in 1996. The claim did not begin to run at the time the tax ordinance was adopted by the city, but rather when a California Supreme Court decision validated the provisions of Prop. 62, which had been found unconstitutional by a lower court, and thus established the existence of a duty on the part of the city to conduct an election. Under controlling case law prior to the California Supreme Court decision, the city had no such duty and, accordingly, the plaintiff had no valid basis for seeking mandamus relief. McBrearty v. City of Brawley (CalifLaw 4th Dist. Dec. 15, 1997), 59 CalifLaw 4th 1441, 69 Cal. Rptr. 2d 862, 1997 CalifLawCALIFLAW 1037, overruled in part, Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Assn. v. City of La Habra (Cal.

An action by a connecting carrier against a shipper to recover unpaid freight for the shipment of goods pursuant to a bill of lading issued by the initial carrier and providing for payment of freight by the owner or consignee of the goods is based upon the bill of lading and not governed by this section. New York C. R. Co. v. Mutual Orange Distributors (9th Cir. Cal. May 6, 1918), 251 F. 230, 1918 U.S. App. CALIFLAW 1692.

Just as Gov C § 65009(c)(1)(E) applies to claims that a permit or condition is void, so the statute of limitations governing the claim that an ordinance has been preempted by later-enacted state law, CCP § 338(a), applies despite the further contention that preemption rendered the ordinance void. Travis v. County of Santa Cruz (Cal. July 29, 2004), 33 Cal. 4th 757, 16 Cal. Rptr. 3d 404, 94 P.3d 538, 2004 Cal. CALIFLAW 6834.

Borrowers’ claims against a mortgage company and a finance company for rescission under CC § 1689(b) were not untimely because the limitations period for an action based upon the rescission of a contract in writing was four years under CCP § 337(3), rather than three years under CCP § 338(a). Cazares v. Household Fin. Corp. (C.D. Cal. July 26, 2005), 2005 U.S. Dist. CALIFLAW 39222.

Consumer’s allegations of conduct unlawful under CC § 1747.08(e) occurring outside of one year had to be stricken because the one-year statute of limitations in CCP § 340 applied to his claims, not the three-year limitations period found in CCP § 338. Shabaz v. Polo Ralph Lauren Corp. (C.D. Cal. Aug. 25, 2008), 586 F. Supp. 2d 1205, 2008 U.S. Dist. CALIFLAW 95084.

In a case in which a townhome association filed a construction defect lawsuit, concerning a reroofing project, against roofing defendants, judgments entered in favor of defendants on the statute of limitations grounds were reversed, where there were triable issues of material fact as to whether alleged reroofing defects were patent and whether the defects could be deemed discovered in the latent defect context because the damage was sufficiently appreciable so that the association suspected or reasonably should have suspected that defendants had done something wrong to it. Creekridge Townhome Owners Assn., Inc. v. C. Scott Whitten, Inc. (CalifLaw 3d Dist. Sept. 1, 2009), 177 CalifLaw 4th 251, 99 Cal. Rptr. 3d 258, 2009 CalifLawCALIFLAW 1458.
