Norton v. California
Plaintiff and appellant Alexander Norton appeals from the trial courts order denying his petition under Welfare and Institutions Code section 8103, subdivision (f).[1]Norton argues that the trial court erred because (1) it applied the incorrect legal standard in denying his petition; (2) substantial evidence does not support the courts order; and (3) the trial court failed to observe certain procedural requirements contained in section 8103. Because Court conclude that the trial court apparently misapplied the lawas to which side had the burden of proof in this case, Court reverse its judgment and remand the case to it for reconsideration including, if necessary, a new hearing. Court do not, therefore, reach appellants other two contentions.
