View this case - free  

Overview: In a case in which plaintiff, in an arbitral forum, subpoenaed certain documents from a surgery center, the limited review provisions of Code Civ. Proc., § 1283.05, subd. (c), did not bind the center, which was not a party to the arbitration agreement. The trial court had jurisdiction to hear the center's motion for a protective order.

Century Surety Co. v. Polisso, C045334, COURT OF APPEAL OF CALIFORNIA, THIRD APPELLATE DISTRICT, May 22, 2006, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: A punitive damage award of $ 2,015,000 for insureds was not excessive because the insurer's conduct, including stalling and engaging in scare tactics, was moderately high on the reprehensibility scale; the punitive/compensatory ratio of 3.2-to-1 was well within the constitutional limit; and a smaller award would have been a slap on the wrist.
