When will the Attorney General request to take judicial notice of legislative history pertaining to the amendment of section 207 to include a theory of non-forcible kidnapping of a child for the purpose of molestation?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Castro, G046541 (Cal. App. 2013):

We grant the Attorney General's request to take judicial notice of legislative history pertaining to the amendment of section 207 in 1982 (Stats. 1982, ch. 1404, p. 5358) to include a theory of non-forcible kidnapping of a child for the purpose of molestation. (See People v. Scott (2013) 216 Cal.App.4th 848, 856, fn. 5 [appropriate to take judicial notice of legislative history].) Given the plain language of the statute, it is unnecessary to describe this material in detail. Suffice it to say that the legislative history does not provide clear insight as to how the statute should be interpreted beyond the text of the statute itself.
