Santillan v Roman Catholic Bishop of Fresno 202 Cal.App.4th 708 (2012) (2/8) GS & HS molested by priest H 1959-65 and 1960-73 respectively. One-year revival period (2003) applies only if diocese knew or should have known of H’s molesting during relevant period. San-Diego-Auto-Accident-lawyer Jury instruction that innocuous or ambiguous conduct is insufficient to give diocese knowledge. Jury found action barred by statute of limitations. New trial granted for HS, denied for GS, for new evidence that other boy made report in 1967, affirmed. [1] New evidence learned during jury deliberations, not reported to trial judge until after verdict, proper to find timely. [2] Because 1967 report relevant only to HS’s claim, not to GS’s which ended two years before report.  San Diego personal injury attorney
