2015 Case Highlights: The Year in Review
During the past year, significant new cases were decided that affect family law. The United States Supreme Court, the California Supreme Court, the appellate courts, and the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals issued such important decisions during the past year.
The continuing collaboration between Continuing Education of the Bar (CEB) and the Family Law Section continues to reap benefits for our members. The Family Law News is pleased to once again publish the CEB Year in Review. Each year, CEB publishes a detailed compilation of important case law and legislative developments on issues ranging from attorneys fees to child custody to enforcement.
Reprinted below for your review and easy reference are some of the key rulings during late 2014 and 2015. Except as indicated otherwise, all cases are final.
