Is there a savings clause in a personal injury claim?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Nasalga, 27 Cal.App.4th 110, 34 Cal.Rptr.2d 1 (Cal. App. 1994):

Thus the absence of a savings clause here does not end our inquiry. We must examine any other available indicia of intent, for it is only "in the absence of clear legislative intent to the contrary" that a defendant receives retroactive benefit. (People v. Rossi (1976) 18 Cal.3d 295, 299, 134 Cal.Rptr. 64, 555 P.2d 1313.)
