California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Shalikar v. Shalikar, E056412 (Cal. App. 2014):

[Citation.]"' [Citations.] The scope of discretion always resides in the particular law being applied, i.e., in the 'legal principles governing the subject of [the] action . . . .' Action that transgresses the confines of the applicable principles of law is outside the scope of discretion and we call such action an 'abuse' of discretion." (City of Sacramento v. Drew (1989) 207 Cal.App.3d 1287, 1297.)
