The statutes relating to quo warranto are in the California Code of Civil Procedure, starting at section 803. Generally speaking, a quo warranto action may not be filed without the approval of the Attorney General. In order to obtain the Attorney General’s approval, a private person or a local agency must file an application pursuant to the rules and regulations issued by the Attorney General. (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 11, §§ 1-11.) The application and supporting documents must be prepared by a licensed attorney. More information on preparing an application is available on our Quo Warranto page .
