Where is code?


What is the name of your state? California, Can anyone tell me where i can find the information pretaining to a longago case. It was dismissed by the court for the reason given below. I tried using different search strings, but all took me to pages that seemed to have nothing in common with this old case. The case invoked by my X-wife, was a civil case to get an order for foreign support but was unknown to me until recent times. The action was (case dismissed) the reason was (Lack of Prosecution Purs CC P583.10). Where can i find this "P583.10"?.
Thank You - James H.

My response:

The code section is - -

California Code of Civil Procedure section 583.310.
"An action shall be brought to trial within five years after the action is commenced against the defendant."

Nowadays, this code section is rarely invoked by a party, or even the court, because for years now, California courts are on the "Fast Track" system of getting cases to trial.
