Searching Tips

When searching Forecite California, there are shortcuts you can take to find the information you are looking for:

1. By Code Section:

Forecite uses standard abbreviations for different types of codes. Those abbreviations can be found below:

Codes:
CCR California Code of Regulations
Corp C Corporations Code
EC Evidence Code
FG Fish and Game Code
GC Government Code
HN Harbors & Navigation Code
HS Health & Safety Code
PC Penal Code
RT Revenue & Tax Code
VC Vehicle Code
WI Welfare & Institutions Code

Using these codes to search is very simple. For example, if you wanted to search for Penal Code section 20, you would type PC 20 into the search box.

2. By CALJIC Number:

Since Forecite is indexed to CALJIC, searching for CALJIC numbers is easy. For example, to search for CALJIC 3.16, you would type 3.16 into the search box.

3. By Case Name or Citation:

To find a case or citation, simply enter all or part of the case’s citation. Since many cases are known only by one name involved, it is often helpful to not search for the entire citation. For example, if you were searching for references to People v. Geiger (84) 35 C3d 510, 526 [199 CR 45], you could search for People v. Geiger or just Geiger. Searching for Geiger might be more helpful since it would find references to the case that do not include the full citation.

Return to CALJIC Part 14-17 – Contents

F 16.115 n1 Escape Following Remand Or Arrest (PC 836.6(a),(b)): ISSUE ALERT.

Former CJ 16.115 improperly directed a verdict on an element of the charge by instructing that “A _____ is a peace officer.” The July 1997 version deleted the erroneous language. However, conviction under the old instruction may be subject to challenge. (See FORECITE F 8.81.19a.) Moreover, there are still other CALJIC instructions which contain similar language (i.e., CJ 8.81.4, CJ 8.81.7, CJ 8.81.19, CJ 8.81.20 and CJ 16.251). (See FORECITE F 8.81.19a.)

F 16.115a

Escape Following Remand Or Arrest: “Should Know”

Standard Requires Consideration Of A Reasonable Person In Defendant’s Position

(PC 836.6)

ALERT: CJ 16.115 was deleted in the 6th Edition.
