On Monday morning, the Supreme Court will file opinions in California Cannabis Coalition v. City of Upland and Rubenstein v. Doe No. 1. (Briefs here; oral argument video here.) These are the last two opinions for cases argued on the late-May calendar.
California Cannabis Coalition raises the issue whether a proposed initiative measure that would impose a tax is subject to the requirement of California Constitution, article XIII C, section 2 that taxes “imposed by local government” be placed on the ballot at a general election.
In Rubenstein, the court will address these questions: (1) Does the delayed discovery rule in Code of Civil Procedure section 340.1 apply to the accrual of a cause of action against a public entity for purposes of determining the time within which a claim under the Government Claims Act must be made? (2) Does Government Code section 905, subdivision (m), apply to childhood sexual abuse causes of action based on conduct occurring before January 1, 2009?
The opinions can be viewed Monday starting at 10:00 a.m.
