(1)    Morgan (Barbara) et al. v. Ygrene Energy Fund Inc. et al., S277628
Petition for review after the Court of Appeal affirmed the judgment in a civil action.  This case presents the following issue:  Must a homeowner exhaust administrative tax remedies by filing a claim for a refund with an assessment board before filing an action asserting consumer protection claims against private entities involved in the implementation of a loan program in which the loans are repaid through assessments on the property and the local government acquires a tax lien on the property? 

(2)    In re S.R. et al., S285759
Petition for review after the Court of Appeal dismissed appeal as moot in a juvenile dependency proceeding.  This case presents the following issues:  (1) When a juvenile court’s jurisdictional findings establish that a parent committed an offense that the law requires be reported to the statewide Child Abuse Centralized Index (CACI), should an appellate court presume, on an otherwise silent record, the offense has been or will be reported to CACI?  (2) If unrebutted, is this presumption sufficient to avoid dismissal for mootness?
