Question presented
Whether California Code of Civil Procedure (CCP) §391 violates the U.S. Constitution because CCP §391 bears on a fundamental right of access to the courts and contains an irrebuttable presumption affecting that right? Whether CCP §391 violates the U.S. Constitution because CCP §391 relates to a fundamental right of access to the courts and because CCP §391 is not narrowly tailored to serve a compelling state interest? Whether the state of California can punish a citizen of another state/jurisdiction under CCP §391 for conduct of the citizen in another state/jurisdiction where that conduct is perfectly legal and appropriate in the other state/jurisdiction? Whether CCP §391 impermissibly imposes its law on citizens of other states/jurisdictions in violation of federalism? Whether CCP §391 is unconstitutional on void for vagueness notice grounds?
