Mission and Program Overview

Mission

To preserve, maintain, and keep updated a public website containing California discovery laws previously maintained by a San Francisco Superior Court Commissioner.

Program Services

DescriptionGrantsExpenses
The organization worked to preserve a website located at https://california-discovery-law.net that was previously maintained by a San Francisco Superior Court Commissioner (Richard Best) for many years. The website focused on California civil discovery laws and provided the names of cases relevant to a particular discovery device (i.e. depositions, interrogatories, document production) and issue. The organization unsuccessfully attempted to get funding and support from the California Lawyers Association and became largely non-operational in approximately 2020, including closing its bank account. It has been unintentionally delayed in dissolving and plans to do so once all required filings are submitted. For additional information, please reach out to Secretary Mary Kathleen Gallagher at [email protected] or 916-379-7779.$0$0

ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt0This organization immediately experienced financial hardships and became non-operational after specific funding goals were not met and no agreement could be made regarding alternative funding sources. The organization ceased operations after 2019 and closed its bank account in approximately 2020. The delays were not intentional and were compounded by the occurrence of Covid-19 and other priorities. We are respectfully requesting a waiver of any and all penalties under the circumstances. I am available to answer any additional questions or provide further information upon request. I can be reached by e-mail at [email protected] or 916-379-7779. Thank you in advance for the courtesy.
