California Court of Appeal

MILLER v. ELLIS, A095705

Where one of two co-tortfeasors is seeking equitable indemnification from the other for sums paid by an insurance company in settlement of the underlying personal injury action, because the trial court misapplied the collateral source rule and the remedy of equitable indemnification in a way that would result in unjust enrichment, judgment for plaintiff reversed and remanded.
