Is a single act of child endangerment a continuous course of conduct crime?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Johnson, C085283 (Cal. App. 2019):
Child endangerment is not always an indivisible continuous course of conduct crime. While it often covers repetitive or continuous conduct, the child abuse statute may be violated by a single act. (People v. Ewing (1977) 72 Cal.App.3d 714, 717.)
