Appealability — timeliness of notice of appeal
Practitioner Blog
Practitioner Blog
Each month I flag a handful of published and unpublished Second District opinions that bear on civil or criminal procedure or evidence — the kind of ruling that changes how an appellate practitioner briefs, files, or tries a case, as distinct from a holding that only matters because of its particular facts. The common thread across every entry is significance to trial-level practice broadly — civil and criminal procedure, evidence, and jurisdiction — not the substantive area of law a case happens to involve. This page is curated, not comprehensive; the goal is a short, useful list, not a docket dump.
On unpublished opinions. A small number of the opinions below are unpublished and cannot be cited or relied on in any other California proceeding under Rule of Court 8.1115. They are included, and marked as such, because the procedural reasoning is still useful to understand even where it carries no citable weight.

About This Blog
Each entry flags a published or unpublished opinion from a California or federal appellate court that bears on civil or criminal procedure or evidence — the kind of ruling that changes how an appellate practitioner briefs, files, or tries a case. No entry exists without having read the actual opinion. The blog is curated, not comprehensive.
An unpublished opinion may not be cited or relied on by a court or a party in any other action under California Rule of Court 8.1115. Unpublished opinions included here are marked as such; the procedural reasoning may still be useful even where it carries no citable weight.
