Perish The Cite
A bill currently pending in California legislature, AB 1165, would alter California law to permit the citation of unpublished appellate opinions. (Existing California law provides that unpublished opinions "shall not be cited or relied on by a court or a party in any other action or proceeding.") Last week, AB 1165 failed to pass committee. I serve on the Appellate Courts Committee of the Los Angeles County Bar Association, and the Committee now has posted a number of materials related to the issue.
