On Monday morning, the Supreme Court will file opinions in Gregory v. Cott, People v. Capistrano, and People v. Carrasco. Gregory and Capistrano were argued on the court’s early-May calendar and are the last from that session awaiting decision. Carrasco was argued on the late-May calendar.
In Gregory, the court will decide whether the doctrine of primary assumption of the risk bars the complaint for damages brought by an in-home caregiver against an Alzheimer’s patient and her husband for injuries the caregiver received when the patient lunged at her.
Capistrano is an automatic appeal from a January 1998 judgment of death. Carrasco is an automatic appeal from a February 1999 judgment of death.
The opinions can be viewed Monday starting at 10:00 a.m.
