CALIFORNIA MEDICAL ASSOCIATION v. BROWN
The California Medical Association (CMA) contests the legality of a loan made from the Contingent Fund of the Medical Board of California (Medical Board) to the state General Fund to help balance the state's fiscal year 2008−2009 budget. Government Code section 16310 authorizes loans from Special Funds to the General Fund if the General Fund is exhausted and the loan does not interfere with the object for which the Special Fund was created. We conclude that the loan to the General Fund was lawful under this statute, and affirm the denial of CMA's petition for writ of mandate to require that the money be returned to the Contingent Fund.
