Today the 6th District publishes
The Superior Court of Alameda County v. County of Alameda, about funding for court security. All very interesting stuff; but footnote 6 was especially interesting in terms of how (and by whom) this case was tried and (where it gets) appealed:
Due to special statutorily mandated procedures, this action was heard by a
Second District Court of Appeal justice [2/6's Justice Perren] acting as the trial court, and the appeal was
assigned to this court even though the action was brought and adjudicated in Alameda
County. (§ 69926, subd. (e)(2), (e)(5).)
