“any written or oral statement, writing, or petition made before or to a legislative, executive, or judicial proceeding, or any other official proceeding authorized by law, or any written or oral statement, writing, or petition made in connection with an issue under consideration or review by a legislative, executive, or judicial body, or any other official proceeding authorized by law.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the concurrence“[I]t is undisputed that Davis failed to file the verifications with his complaint and that the omission was raised by the defendants in their answer. It is also undisputed that Davis filed the verifications with his amended complaint more than ten days (approximately two months) after the failure to file was first brought to his attention. We are bound to follow the express language of the statute. Applying that language, Davis was not free to amend the complaint after the ten-day period for the remedy of such failure had already expired. Furthermore, the statute explicitly mandates that the claim “shall be stricken” if the verification is not filed timely. “ ‘Shall’ ordinarily denotes command and not permission.” Ring v. Williams. 8 Thus, the trial court erred in holding that Davis’ failure to verify his complaint as required by law was an amendable defect.”
