4241 REVIEW GRANTED In an action against a public entity for injuries resulting from a dangerous condition of public property, the jury's determination that public employees created a dangerous condition was not sufficient to establish negligence; a finding that the public entity did not have sufficient notice that a condition it created twenty years ago was dangerous was consistent with the conclusion that it was not dangerous when created; a jury instruction and special verdict form (CACI VF-1101) requiring the jury to determine whether conduct was negligent and if so to determine whether it was reasonable could lead to an inconsistent verdict, although it did not have that effect when the jury determined that the conduct was not negligent and did not go on to determine whether it was reasonable.
METCALF v COUNTY OF SAN JOAQUIN (Stop Sign Placement) 139 CA4 969 [See: GovC 835; CACI VF-1101; Brown v Poway USD 4 C4 820, T/AT 3/93]
