Claims against public entities.

Existing law, the Government Claims Act, establishes the liability and immunity of a public entity for its acts or omissions that cause harm to persons and requires that a claim against a public entity relating to a cause of action for death or for injury to person, personal property, or growing crops be presented not later than 6 months after accrual of the cause of action. Under existing law, claims relating to any other cause of action are required to be presented no later than one year after the accrual of the cause of action.
