The Court of Appeal reversed a San Bernardino Superior Court ruling that County Supervisor Dawn Rowe’s appointment to the Board of Supervisors violated the Brown Act, at the request of both parties.
The San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors and Inland Empire United, which challenged Rowe’s appointment, entered into a written settlement outside of the courts.
“This reversal is solely for the purpose of returning jurisdiction of the case to the superior court by vacating the judgment solely on the grounds of mootness. The superior court is directed to dismiss the underlying case with prejudice as moot,” the ruling says.
