California Court of Appeal

In plaintiff's breach of contract suit against defendant that arose out of a longstanding business relationship, the trial court did not abuse its discretion when it excluded evidence of a plea agreement and conviction of a corporation, of which plaintiff was the CEO and sole shareholder, to impeach plaintiff and show his motive and knowledge.
