On Monday morning, the Supreme Court will file its opinion in Shalabi v. City of Fontana.  (Briefs here; oral argument video here.)

Shalabi will be the first opinion in a late-May calendar case.  Five early-May cases remain undecided.  After Monday, there will be 18 cases left in the summer pipeline.

When the court granted review in August 2019, it limited the issue in Shalabi to:  “Code of Civil Procedure section 12 provides:  ‘The time in which any act provided by law is to be done is computed by excluding the first day, and including the last, unless the last day is a holiday, and then it is also excluded.’  In cases where the statute of limitations is tolled, is the first day after tolling ends included or excluded in calculating whether an action is timely filed?”  In March, the court directed supplemental briefing on “whether this court’s decision in Ganahl v. Soher (1884) 2 Cal.Unrep. 415, retains precedential authority in light of this court’s subsequent decision in Ganahl v. Soher (1885) 68 Cal. 95.”  [Disclosure:  Horvitz & Levy filed an amicus brief and a supplemental amicus brief in the case.]

The opinion can be viewed Monday starting at 10:00 a.m.
