Patten v. County of San Diego

The appellant was a recipient of county general relief under section 2500 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, and failed to report the fact that he had received certain sums of money from his sister. For such failure the payment of general relief was discontinued. On July 10, 1950, appellant instituted mandate proceedings against the respondent county of San Diego to compel it to restore appellant to indigent relief ""in such amount as he is entitled,"" and ""subject to certain conditions.""
