signature requirement in California

2024The public interest exception applies “ ‘ “where the question is one of public right and the object of the mandamus is to procure the enforcement of a public duty. ” ’ ” (Save the Plastic Bag, supra, 52 Cal.4th at p. 166 .) The trial court questioned the extent of the public duty in this case, citing the “significant dispute regarding whether the initiative process applies to school districts” and the timing of Loeber’s writ petition, which the court observed came too late to comply with the election timelines set forth in Elections Code section 1405.

2024(Id. at p. 218.) In reaching this conclusion, the Supreme Court rejected the initiative proponent’s argument, relying on the second sentence of section 3, that the initiative imposing a voter-approval requirement on future charge increases “would ‘affect’ those charges and therefore [wa]s within the constitutional grant of initiative power.” (Bighorn-Desert, supra, 39 Cal.4th at p. 218 .) The court explained that the “evident purpose” of section 3’s second sentence “is not to define how the initiative may be used to impact fees and charges, but instead to specify that the initiative power exte

2025Cione v. Foresters Equity Services, Inc. (1997) 58 Cal.App.4th 625 , which Miso heavily relies on in urging us to find the arbitration agreement enforceable, does not change our analysis.

2023Krug Real Estate Investments, Inc. v. Praszker (1990) 220 Cal.App.3d 35, 47 [“The rule favoring appealability in cases of ambiguity cannot apply where there is a clear intention to appeal from only part of the judgment or one of two separate appealable judgments or orders.”].) “‘“Our jurisdiction on appeal is limited in scope to the notice of appeal and the judgment or order appealed from.” [Citation.] We have no jurisdiction over an order not mentioned in the notice of appeal.’” (In re J.F.

2016(Nielsen, supra, 18 Cal.App.4th at p. 868 .) The Legislature has included in many statutes language limiting a signature requirement to the party to be bound; accordingly, if it had chosen to do so, the Legislature could have included such language in section 3864, but it did not.

2014(See DeVita, supra, 9 Cal.4th at pp. 793-795; Stein, supra, 110 Cal.App.3d at p. 461 .) The question here is whether the result should be different in the direct adoption context.

2013He relies on a civil case, Hassoldt v. Patrick Media Group, Inc. (2000) 84 Cal.App.4th 153 [ 100 Cal.Rptr.2d 662 ], in which it was suggested that “where the identity of the actor is in dispute and the uncharged misconduct fails to satisfy the stringent ‘so unusual and distinctive as to be like a signature’ standard enunciated in Ewoldt , the uncharged conduct is not admissible on such issues as intent, motive or lack of mistake or accident. . . .” (Id., at p. 166.)

2013(See id. at pp. 583-584.) In interpreting section 664.6 in this manner, the Levy court reasoned that "settlement is such a serious step that it requires the client's knowledge and express consent." (Levy, supra, 10 Cal.4th at p. 583 .)

2006The Court of Appeal stated: “Article XIII C governs special and general taxes, which are not at issue here.” Kelley argues that this statement is erroneous because section 3 of article XIH C is not limited to special and general taxes, but applies by it terms to “any local tax, assessment, fee or charge.” When interpreting a provision of our state Constitution, our aim is “to determine and effectuate the intent of those who enacted the constitutional provision at issue.” (Richmond, supra, 32 Cal.4th at p. 418 .) When, as here, the voters enacted the provision, their intent governs.

1983A checkmark was placed in front of certain items including, “Defendant made knowing and intelligent waiver of counsel.” Typed on the backside of the docket and over the judge’s signature as to waiver was, “Defendant freely and intelligently waived all constitutional rights and entered a plea of guilty to charge.” (Stewart, supra, 74 Cal.App.3d, at p. 609 .) Again, however, there was no signature or initial by the defendant to verify the accuracy of the recitations in the waiver.
