4283 The claim presentation requirement of the Government Claims Act (a/k/a Tort Claims Act) does not apply to a claim for the specific return of property confiscated by a public agency, even though loss of the property requires the agency to respond in damages rather than to return the property itself; a purported petition for writ of habeas corpus filed in propia persona by a prisoner and seeking the return of confiscated, non-contraband property was properly treated by the court as a petition for writ of mandamus.CitationESCAMILLA v CA DEP'T OF CORRECTIONS (Prison Confiscation) 141 CA4 498 [See: GovC 810 etseq; CCP 1085; Minsky v City 11 C3 113; Holt v Kelly 20 C3 560; Long v City 68 CA4 782, T/AT 1/99]
