Opinion
CANTIL-SAKAUYE, J.
Plaintiff Joy R. Jones sued defendants Catholic Healthcare West and St. Joseph’s Medical Center (St. Joseph’s) for personal injuries she suffered while hospitalized in May 2002. Defendants moved for summary judgment on grounds Jones’s action was barred by the statute of limitations set forth in Code of Civil Procedure section 340.5, 1 and the purported notice of intent to sue which Jones faxed to St. Joseph’s president on February 2, 2004, did not extend the time within which to file an action against defendants. The court granted summary judgment and Jones appeals.
