2 sentences2020Douglas Emmett contends that rules of construction require us to interpret the term “such arbitrators” in section 21.03 as referring only to the specifically identified “arbitrators” in the preceding clause of the sentence rather than to the entire group of “arbitrator or arbitrators or appraiser or appraisers.” Citing Rice, supra, 248 Cal.App.4th 175 , Douglas Emmett argues that when parties to a contract use particular language in one portion of a contract (i.e., “arbitrator or arbitrators or appraiser or appraisers”) and use different language in another portion of the contract (i.e., “such 2020Douglas Emmett contends that rules of construction require us to interpret the term “such arbitrators” in section 21.03 as referring only to the specifically identified “arbitrators” in the preceding clause of the sentence rather than to the entire group of “arbitrator or arbitrators or appraiser or appraisers.” Citing Rice, supra, 248 Cal.App.4th 175 , Douglas Emmett argues that when parties to a contract use particular language in one portion of a contract (i.e., “arbitrator or arbitrators or appraiser or appraisers”) and use different language in another portion of the contract (i.e., “such | 1 | 2020–2020 |

Virgil, supra, 51 Cal.4th 1210, 1251 .)

Hagar v. Board of Supervisors
green
1 sentence2015Of course, a provision’s title “is never allowed to enlarge or control the language in the body of the [provision].” (Hagar v. Sup. of Yolo Co. (1874) 47 Cal. 222, 232 ; see DaFonte v. Up-Right, Inc. (1992) 2 Cal.4th 593, 602 [ 7 Cal.Rptr.2d 238 , 828 P.2d 140 ] [“Title or chapter headings are unofficial and do not alter the explicit scope, meaning, or intent of a statute.”].) Consistent with the preceding analysis, we disapprove Communities for a Better Environment v. California Resources Agency (2002) 103 Cal.App.4th 98, 129 [ 126 Cal.Rptr.2d 441 ], insofar as it suggests that a proposed pro | 1 | 2015–2015 |

As aptly noted in LACBA Opinion 523, pages 38-39, this language in Flannery “can be read as suggesting that it is appropriate for the attorney and client to agree, in an otherwise enforceable retainer agreement, to divide the statutory award of attorney’s fees that could otherwise belong to the attorney. | 1 | 2014–2014 |
People v. Wilson

1 sentence2011As set forth in the preceding claim, the federal constitutional standard for dismissing a prospective juror for cause based on his or her views of capital punishment is whether the juror’s views “ ' “would ‘prevent or substantially impair the performance of his [or her] duties as a juror’ ” in accordance with the court’s instructions and the juror’s oath.’ [Citations.]” (People v. Wilson, supra, 44 Cal.4th at p. 779 .) “ ‘If the prospective juror’s statements are conflicting or equivocal, the court’s determination of the actual state of mind is binding. | 1 | 2011–2011 |
Copley Press, Inc. v. Superior Court

1 sentence2006In any event, the statutory language does not support Copley's assertion (which the dissent erroneously repeats (dis. opn., post, 48 Cal.Rptr.3d at pp. 211-212, 141 P.3d at p. 312 )), that only records kept by departments or agencies that employ peace officers are "maintained ... pursuant to [s]ection 832.5."
