    Holding substantial compliance exception could not save plaintiff's claim when her claim forms included "no reference whatsoever" to defendant's allegedly tortious acts and did not indicate damages sought for those acts

    (State v. Superior ( Bodde ), supra, 32 Cal.4th at p. 1239, 13 Cal.Rptr.3d 534, 90 P.3d 116.) Appellants rely on a single, unpublished opinion of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California (Trevino v. Lassen Municipal Utility Dist. (E.D.Cal. Jan. 29, 2008) 2008 WL 269087) to argue that plaintiffs asserting claims for intentional torts of elected officials brought under section 815.3 are not required to file a governmental claim prior to filing their lawsuit.
