Republican Caucus, analysis of Assem. Bill No. 2740 (1985-1986 Reg. Sess.) July 2, 1986, p. 1; Assem. Republican Caucus, analysis of Assem. Bill No. 2740 (1985-1986 Reg. Sess.) Aug. 19, 1986, p. 1.)</p> <br /> <p>So that the paragraph reads as follows:</p> <br /> <p> Ailanto places principal reliance on two legislative caucus analyses of Assembly Bill No. 2740. Although the analyses focus primarily on other matters in the bill, they do state in passing that the bill would also "<a href="http://www.sandiegohealthdirectory.com/">limit the length of a development moratorium to not exceed five years</a>." (Assem. Republican Caucus, analysis of Assem. Bill No. 2740 (1985-1986 Reg. Sess.) July 2, 1986, p. 1; Assem. Republican Caucus, analysis of Assem. Bill No. 2740 (1985-1986 Reg. Sess.) Aug. 19, 1986, p. 1.) This brief mention in two legislative caucus analyses does not alter our conclusion, however. It is true that some California courts have considered analyses by legislative party caucuses as part of a statute's legislative history, at least where such analyses are <i>consistent</i> with other legislative history. (<i>People v. Ledesma</i> (1997) 16 Cal.4th 90, 98; but, see <i>Metropolitan Water Dist. v. Imperial Irrigation Dist.</i> (2000) 80 Cal.App.4th 1403, 1425 ["a court will generally consider only those materials indicative of the intent of the Legislature <i>as a whole</i>"].) Here, we think that the complete absence of anything in the Legislative Counsel's Digest, committee reports, and other <a href="http://www.mcmillanlaw.us/">legislative history</a> materials speaks far more loudly than a single phrase in these two caucus analyses.</p> <br /> <p> There is no change in the judgment.</p> <br /> <p>Publication Courtesy of <a href="http://www.fearnotlaw.com/">San Diego County Legal Resource Directory</a>.</p> <br /> <p>Analysis and review provided by <a href="http://www.mcmillanlaw.us/">San Diego County Property line attorney.</a></p>
