§ 15110 Bond Validity Legal Challenges

This law lets someone go to court to ask if a bond or an order for improvement or buying something is valid, and says the decisions made by the legislative body are final unless there was real fraud.

Key Takeaways

  • •You can sue to check if a bond or improvement order is valid.
  • •The lawsuit must follow Chapter 9 (starting at Section 860) of Title 10, Part 2 of the Code of Civil Procedure.
  • •The legislative body's findings are binding unless actual fraud is shown.

Example

A city builds a new park and issues a bond to pay for it. A resident thinks the bond was issued incorrectly and wants to challenge it.

The resident can file a lawsuit under Chapter 9 of the Code of Civil Procedure to have a judge decide if the bond is valid. The court will treat the legislative body's findings about the bond as final unless the resident can prove fraud.
