How have courts interpreted the Communications Privacy Act?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Waisbren v. Peppercorn Productions, Inc., 41 Cal.App.4th 246, 48 Cal.Rptr.2d 437 (Cal. App. 1995):

In construing the provisions of the Act, our goal is to ascertain and effectuate legislative intent. (Burden v. Snowden (1992) 2 Cal.4th 556, 562, 7 Cal.Rptr.2d 531, 828 P.2d 672.) In determining that intent, we look first to the language of the statute, giving effect to its plain meaning. (Ibid.)
