Opinion
RUBIN, J.
— Plaintiffs George and Howard Santillan appeal from the summary judgment entered for defendant Roman Catholic Bishop of Fresno in this action based on allegations of childhood sexual abuse by one of defendant’s former clerics. Because triable issues of fact exist concerning whether defendant had the requisite notice that the offending cleric posed a risk of committing such acts (Code Civ. Proc., § 340.1, subds. (b), (c)), we reverse the trial court’s determination that the complaint was barred by the statute of limitations.
