California Court of Appeal

Dismissal of plaintiffs' second amended complaint for damages based upon defendants' alleged failure to obtain their informed consent to an aggregate settlement, and defendants' misappropriation of and failure to account for the settlement funds, is affirmed, where: 1) plaintiffs' allegations in their complaint in combination with the exhibits attached to their complaint reveal facts that should have put plaintiffs on inquiry notice of their fraud claim against defendants, thus starting the running of the fraud statute of limitations; and 2) plaintiffs filed their complaint after expiration of the fraud statute of limitations.
