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.

F 2440 Note 3 Maintaining A Place For Controlled Substance Sale Or Use: Not Applicable To Repeated Sole Use Of Drugs At Home

In People v. Vera (1999) 69 CA4th 1100 (Vera), the court held that section HS 11366 does not cover “mere repeated solo use” of a controlled substance “at home.” (Id. at p. 1103.) In arriving at its conclusion, the court examined the meaning of “open” and “maintain.” “To ‘open’ means ‘to make available for entry’ or ‘to make accessible for a particular purpose,’ [citation] and to ‘maintain’ means ‘to continue or persevere in’ [citation]. When added to the word ‘place,” the opening or maintaining of a place indicates the provision of such locality to others.” (Ibid.; see also People v. Ferrando (2004) 115 CA4th 917; People v. Leiske [UNCITABLE; UNPUBLISHED] 2009 Cal. App. Unpub. LEXIS 5027 (Cal. 1st Dist. 6/22/2009).)
