 * Indeed. Moreno authored an ill-conceived opinion that said that despite the existence of a statute that purported to immunize "Good Samaritans" from lawsuits, the statute only applied in narrowly-specified circumstances, and Good Samaritans can still be sued, because (according to Moreno) the statute only immunizes such people if they render emergency "medical" care.  So if you pull a person out of burning car, you can still be sued because that wouldn't be considered "medical" treatment.  Ridiculous opinion and clearly inconsistent with the obvious purpose of the statute.  Moreno should be ashamed of himself, along with Ronald George, Kathryn Werdegar, and Joyce Kennard, who concurred.  The name of the case is Van Horn v. Watson, (2008) 45 Cal.4th 322.

Various editors continue to add material purporting to link Moreno's possible consideration for the U.S. Supreme Court to Richard Fine, his incarceration, etc. Please review WP:BLP and WP:RS. Thanks. --Weazie (talk) 23:01, 28 December 2009 (UTC)
