Tuesday night saw a ceremonial farewell to Mayor Joe Krovoza who served as Davis Mayor from 2011 until last night. Dan Wolk would be sworn in as the new mayor. Rochelle Swanson, now the senior member of the council, was sworn in for her second term. And Robb Davis was sworn in as new councilmember and Mayor Pro Tem.

A forensic pathologist who participated in the original neuropathology review of 2½-month-old Elijah Clay’s death testified that the infant’s medical findings were extraordinarily complex and could not, by themselves, establish abusive head trauma.

A California custody dispute, extensively documented by a father who has not seen his children in five years, has illuminated systemic issues within judicial proceedings, including instances of ex parte communications and challenges accessing court records.
