Bourhis v. Lord

Case No. Op. Below Argument Opinion Vote Author Term
S199887
12/04/12 03/04/2013 6-1 Chin 2013

Issue: whether a corporation that files notices of appeal while its corporate powers are suspended may proceed with the appeals after those powers have been revived, even if the revival occurs after the time to appeal has expired.

Holding: The court decided to adhere to Rooney, 10 Cal.3d 351, and Peacock Hill, 8 Cal.3d 369, on the basis of stare decisis. Filing a timely notice of appeal is a jurisdictional requirement, not that it be filed by an active corporation.
