Is a plaintiff's failure to include in the record either the operative complaint or the demurrers?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Spanos v. Dreyer, C077235 (Cal. App. 2016):
In a similar case another court observed, "plaintiffs have failed to include in the record either the operative complaint or the demurrers, thus making it impossible for this court to review the complaint de novo to determine whether it states a cause of action. On that basis alone, we must reject plaintiffs' claim." (Bains v. Moores (2009) 172 Cal.App.4th 445, 478.)
