The following excerpt is from Davis v. State, G049805 (Cal. App. 2014):
We begin with general legal principles. A public entity is not liable for an injury arising out of the alleged act or omission of the entity except as provided by statute. ( 815.) Section 835 is the sole statutory basis for a claim imposing liability on a public entity based on the condition of public property. (Brown v. Poway Unified School Dist. (1993) 4 Cal.4th 820, 829.)
