Governing Board v. Felt

In Governing Board v. Felt (1976) 55 Cal. App. 3d 156, the statute in question required that notice be "delivered or mailed ... at least 10 days prior to the hearing." The Felt court concluded that, because the statute did "not incorporate conditions of correct address and prepaid postage, there is compliance with the statute when the notice is deposited in the mail and reaches the teacher as effectively and speedily as one correctly addressed and with adequate postage." (55 Cal. App. 3d at p. 164.)
