California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Do v. Superior Court, 109 Cal.App.4th 1210, 135 Cal.Rptr.2d 855 (Cal. App. 2003):

[109 Cal.App.4th 1213]

Cal.App.3d 96, 114, 260 Cal. Rptr. 369), here we deal solely with a question of statutory interpretation. Thus

[135 Cal.Rptr.2d 857]

we review the issue de novo. (Argaman v. Ratan, supra, 73 Cal.App.4th at p. 1176, 86 Cal.Rptr.2d 917.)
