Opinion

KITCHING, J.

Introduction

A validation action (Code Civ. Proc., § 860 et seq.) 1 allows a public agency to obtain a judgment that its financing commitments are valid, legal, and binding. If the public agency has complied with statutory requirements, the judgment in the validation action binds the agency and all other persons. The question in this appeal is whether a plaintiff can maintain a taxpayer suit filed after the period within which to appeal a judgment in a validation action has expired.

This appeal arises from a challenge to bond financing for the “Aquarium of the Pacific”…
