California Court of Appeal
Johnson & Johnson v. Superior Court of Los Angeles County (Trejo), B226376
In an action for negligence and strict products liability, petition for writ of mandate challenging the trial court's amended order denying defendants' motion for summary adjudication of issues regarding punitive damages, is denied where triable issues of material fact exist regarding whether the petitioners' actions surrounding their purported failure to provide adequate warnings on their ibuprofen product constituted malice, sufficient to support a claim for punitive damages.
