California Court of Appeal

Clement v. Alegre, A123168

Trials court's imposition of discovery sanctions against plaintiffs for interposing objections to special interrogatories propounded by defendants is affirmed as sanctions were warranted where plaintiffs' objection to the term "economic damages" was without substantial justification and their responses to those interrogatories were evasive.
