California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Baccus v. Superior Court, 207 Cal.App.3d 1526, 255 Cal.Rptr. 781 (Cal. App. 1989):

The facts here are distinguishable from those in Barna v. Passage 350 Canon, supra, 186 Cal.App.3d 440, 230 Cal.Rptr. 764 in which the facts are "strikingly similar" [207 Cal.App.3d 1536] to those in Moran. (186 Cal.App.3d at p. 444, 230 Cal.Rptr. 764.) In Barna, the plaintiff contacted the superior court clerk's office after defendants filed a request for trial de novo and requested the case be given the same position on the calendar it had before arbitration; plaintiff was informed she would be notified. The plaintiffs in both Barna and Moran were diligent in attempting to bring their cases
