How have courts interpreted the reconstruction statute in the context of civil rights?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Latt v. Superior Court (Kaufman), 166 Cal.App.3d 296, 212 Cal.Rptr. 380 (Cal. App. 1985):

Among the cases cited is that of Imbler v. Pachtman (1976) 424 U.S. 409, 96 S.Ct. 984, 47 L.Ed.2d 128, which we think is significantly on point. It construes a reconstruction statute with regard to civil rights which should have but does not grant judicial immunity to those persons whose activities necessary for the enforcement of such rights are " * * * an integral part of the judicial process." (Ibid., at p. 430, 96 S.Ct. at p. 995.)
