California Court of Appeal


County of Sacramento v. Superior Court of Sacramento County, C069483

A county's petition for a writ of mandate directing the trial court to set aside its denial of a motion to dismiss a suit against the county, arising from an alleged failure of the county public conservator to warn a care facility adequately about a conservatee's history of violence, is granted, and the trial court's order vacated where under the plain language of Welfare and Institutions Code section 5358.1, civil liability does not attach to a conservator for the actions of a conservatee.
