You have to read this opinion. Basically, the Court of Appeal destroys the parties (and the trial court) for their voluminous summary judgment motions, which added up to about 4,000 pages, and for the blanket acceptance of the objections by the trial court.
The thing is, are you willing to be the first lawyer that goes really lean on your briefs? Are you a partner?
Until there is a massive state-wide trial-court-level implementation of the demands in this decision, we don’t dare risk it. Do we?
