BY THE COURT: 
 
 
The majority opinion herein, filed August 22, 2002, is modified as follows: 
 
Add as a last sentence to footnote 1, page 16, the following sentence:  Of 
course, it is customary for the opinions of appellate courts to include citations to 
the published work of student authors.  (See, e.g., Cal. Style Manual (4th ed. 2000) 
§ 3.8, pp. 100-101; ABA, Judicial Opinion Writing Manual  A Product of the 
Appellate Judges Conference (1991) rule 5.4, p. 71; Golden Gateway Center v. 
Golden Gateway Tenants Assn. (2001) 26 Cal.4th 1013, 1020-1021, fn. 4 & 
accompanying text (plur. opn. by Brown, J.) [stating that “numerous legal 
commentators have . . . questioned . . . curious omissions [in this court’s decision] 
in Robins [v. Pruneyard Shopping Center (1979) 23 Cal.3d 899],” and citing, 
among other authorities, a student Comment in Gonzaga Law Review, a student 
Comment in the University of Richmond Law Review, and a student Note in the 
California Law Review].) 
 
 
 
 
 
The dissenting opinion of Brown, J., is modified as follows: 
 
Delete footnote 1 and italicize the phrase “student comment” in the last 
sentence on page 3. 
 
This modification does not affect the judgment.
