How have the courts treated the findings of fact and conclusions of law in this case?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from City of Salinas v. Homer, 106 Cal.App.3d 307, 165 Cal.Rptr. 65 (Cal. App. 1980):

Initially we must dispose of a minor contention raised by plaintiff. The City contends that, inasmuch as it was directed to prepare the findings of fact and conclusions of law in a manner consistent with the trial court's intended decision, it was not free to use its own judgment in preparing the text. Thus, the City asserts that it should not be held to the rule that a party may not complain of error which it has invited. (Johnson v. Rich (1957) 150 Cal.App.2d 740, 747, 310 P.2d 980.) We agree, and defendants do not contend otherwise.
