Hon. Richard M. Aronson (Ret.)
served as an associate justice on the California Court of Appeal, Fourth District, Division Three, for nearly 20 years. Justice Aronson authored approximately 1,600 opinions, including more than 180 that were published, covering nearly every aspect of California law.

He also served more than 10 years on the Orange County Superior Court, beginning in 1989 when the Orange County Superior Court judges selected him to be a superior court commissioner. He later became the first commissioner to receive a trial court assignment. He was appointed to superior court in 1996. During his tenure he completed panel assignments for unlimited civil trials, felony criminal trials, family law, and sat on the law and motion panel and the court’s appellate division.

As a deputy district attorney in San Bernardino County, he prosecuted major felonies, including homicides and sexual assault crimes, and as a private practitioner, he focused on civil and criminal litigation.

Justice Aronson has served as a faculty member for the California Judicial College and New Judge Orientation; a lecturer at the California State Bar, the Rutter Group and Continuing Education of the Bar; and a speaker before various bar groups. As an adjunct professor at the University of California, Irvine Law School and Chapman School of Law, he taught courses on evidence and trial advocacy.

Representative Matters
Business/Commercial
Bank of America v. Byrd
(2019) WL 5541259: Rejected defendant’s claim she was not liable for her credit card debt based on the “least sophisticated debtor” standard under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). The “least sophisticated debtor” standard did not apply because defendant failed to assert a claim under the FDCPA and because a reasonable person would understand the last statement reflected the total amount due.

Colaco v. Cavotec SA
(2018) 25 Cal. App. 5th 1172: The seller of assets sued the buyer for breaching the asset purchase agreement. Buyer’s obligation to make the final earn-out payment was independent of seller’s obligation to forward to the buyer its post-closing payments.

Consequently, the seller’s failure to forward the post-closing payments provided an offset rather than an excuse for nonperformance.

California Bank & Trust v. Lawlor
(2013) 222 Cal. App. 4th 625: The sham guarantee defense does not apply to guarantees given by individual defendants on a loan taken out by an affiliated company. Defendants failed to present evidence that there was a unity of interest between them and the primary obligors on the loan or that the lender structured the loan to circumvent the anti- Hon.

10 deficiency law
Holcomb v. Wells Fargo
(2007) 155 Cal. App. 5th 490: The California Uniform Commercial Code does not bar a negligent misrepresentation claim where the bank manager negligently misrepresented that a deposit “had been verified” and the customer could write checks against the deposit.

Personal Injury/Torts
Nissan Motor Acceptance Cases
(2021) 63 Cal. App. 5th 793: Substantial evidence supported the jury’s finding that an auto manufacturer’s finance company negligently misrepresented to its dealer that it would not shut the dealer down for missing certain payments owed under its franchise agreement. Substantial evidence also showed the dealer fraudulently concealed material information that was contrary to its earlier promise.

Kwitz-Ahlers v. Bank of America
(2020) 48 Cal. App. 5th 952: Banks do not have a duty to investigate and disclose possible fraudulent activity in another depositor’s account. Requiring banks to monitor the accounts of its depositors’ suspicious activities for the benefit of its other depositors would impede the expedited process of banking transactions crucial to the economy and compromise customer privacy.

Taubee v. EJ Distribution Corp.
(2019) 35 Cal. App. 5th 590: No duty to instruct on negligence per se where the motorist’s vehicle code violation was not the proximate cause of the accident.

Barber v. Chang (2007)
151 Cal App. 4th 1456: Negligence action examined the general duty of landlords to protect tenants and invitees from the risk of harm posed by a potentially violent tenant. Landlord failed to carry his initial burden on summary judgment to show he owed no duty to undertake minimally burdensome measures to alleviate the risk.

Employment
Swanson v. Morongo Unified School District
(2014) 22 Cal. App. 4th 964: Plaintiff sued a
school district for wrongfully failing to renew her teaching contract under the California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA), alleging the district discriminated against her because she took time off to receive cancer treatments. Plaintiff’s status as an untenured teacher on probation did not deprive her of FEHA’s protections. The district failed to meet its initial burden on summary judgment because it failed to present any evidence on plaintiff’s interactive process claim and failed to show it offered a reasonable accommodation for the plaintiff’s condition.

Verdugo v. Alliantgroup, L.P.
(2015) 237 Cal. App. 4th 141: In this lawsuit for unpaid overtime wages, failure to provide itemized wage statements and failure to pay commissions, the defendant employer moved to stay the action based on the forum selection clause in the employment contract. Defendant failed to meet its burden to show that enforcing a forum Hon. Richard M. Aronson (Ret.) | JAMS Neutral | General Biography 5 Park Plaza • Suite 400 • Irvine, CA 92614 • Tel 714-939-1300 • Fax 714-939-8710 • www.jamsadr.com

10 selection clause would not diminish the unwaivable rights the Labor Code confers on all California employees to timely receive their proper pay and itemized wage statements.

Wills v. Superior Court
(2011) 195 Cal. App. 4th 143: Discussed the requirements for FEHA’s administrative exhaustion requirement. Plaintiff sued her employer for disability discrimination when it terminated her for threatening her co-workers and a police officer. The court on summary judgment may not consider whether plaintiff’s comments reasonably could be construed as threatening. Instead, it must determine whether the employer honestly believed plaintiff violated its written policy against verbal threats and threatening conduct.

Consumer/Class Action
Brand v. Hyundai Motor Corporation
(2014) 226 Cal. App. 4th 1538: Nonsuit erroneously
granted in a buyer’s action against a car dealer alleging a breach of the implied warranty of merchantability under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act. A reasonable jury could conclude a sunroof that spontaneously opens and closes while the car is being driven creates a substantial hazard, making it unmerchantable.

Laliberte v. Pacific Mercantile
(2007) 147 Cal. App. 4th 1: Class action alleged bank failed to accurately disclose its finance charges, in violation of the Truth in Lending Act. Trial court erred in denying plaintiffs leave to amend the class claim in their complaint because it appeared they could allege sufficient facts showing they shared a common interest with the class they sought to represent. But plaintiffs could not allege a class claim seeking rescission because rescission under the Truth in Lending Act is a personal remedy not suitable for class action treatment.

Civil Rights
Authored numerous anti-SLAPP cases, including the following: — Sandlin v. McLaughlin
(2020) 50 Cal. App. 5th 805: Candidate statement qualified as protected activity because it contributed to the ongoing public debate over where to locate a veterans cemetery and therefore was a matter of public interest.

ValueRock TN Properties, LLC v. Pk II Larwin Square SC LP (2019) 36 Cal. App. 5th
1037: The gravamen of plaintiffs’ second amended complaint was the landlord’s refusal to consent to an amended request for an assignment of a ground lease in a shopping center made while the case was pending. The landlord’s response during the litigation was not a protected settlement communication or litigation-related conduct.

Paterno v. Superior Court
(2008) 163 Cal. App. 4th 1342: A libel plaintiff cannot establish good cause for special discovery under the anti-SLAPP statute without a prima facie showing the allegedly libelous statements are false and unprivileged.

Christian Research Institute v. Alnor
(2008) 148 Cal. App. 4th 71: Defamation action by
Hon. Richard M. Aronson (Ret.) | JAMS Neutral | General Biography 5 Park Plaza • Suite 400 • Irvine, CA 92614 • Tel 714-939-1300 • Fax 714-939-8710 • www.jamsadr.com

10 public figure plaintiffs against defendant who reported plaintiffs were under investigation for mail fraud. To demonstrate probability of success in opposing defendant’s anti-SLAPP motion, plaintiffs are required to show falsity by preponderance of evidence and malice by clear and convincing evidence.

Kolar v. Donahue, McIntosh & Hammerton
(2006) 145 Cal. App. 4th 1532: A malpractice
cause of action is ordinarily not a protected activity under the anti-SLAPP statute because it does not arise from petitioning activity undertaken on the client’s behalf, but instead arises from the attorney’s failure to competently represent the client.

Chambers v. Miller
(2006) 140 Cal. App. 4th 821: Trial court may not award attorneys’ fees under the anti-SLAPP statute when the plaintiff dismissed all claims against the moving defendants before they filed their anti-SLAP motion.

Integrated Healthcare Holdings, Inc. v. Fitzgibbons
(2006) 140 Cal. App. 4th 515:

Disputed issues included whether the defendant doctor’s email to his hospital’s medical executive committee concerned a matter of public interest under section 425.16, subdivision (e)(4) of the anti-SLAPP statute based on his statement the potential purchaser of the hospital faced bankruptcy.

Guillory v. Hill
(2015) 233 Cal. App. 4th 240: Disputed issues included whether the doctrine of qualified immunity shielded a deputy sheriff from liability for a civil rights violation (42 U.S.C. 1983) based on an alleged prolonged detention of partygoers while executing a search warrant of the residence.

Hessians Motorcycle Club v. J.C. Flanagans
(2001) 86 Cal. App. 4th 833: In addition to the
specific forms of discrimination prohibited by the Unruh Civil Rights Act, the statute also prohibits discrimination based on classifications not specifically identified in the statute, including discrimination based on unconventional dress. But no violation occurs when a sports bar’s policy requires members of motorcycle clubs to remove the patches on their motorcycle jackets. Policy applied to all persons to further the legitimate business interest in preventing fights between rival clubs.

Arbitration
Brown v. TGS Management Company, LLC
(2020) 57 Cal. App. 5th 303: Disputed issues
included whether the arbitrator exceeded his powers when issuing an award enforcing provisions of an employment agreement that restricted a party’s right to work and compete with his former employer.

(2020) 54 Cal. App. 5th 691 and
Clifford v. Quest Software Inc.
(2019) 38

McGill
rule (
McGill v. Citibank, NA
(2017) 2 Cal. 5th
945) [arbitration provision waiving the right to seek public injunctive relief is invalid and unenforceable] to resolve whether the plaintiff’s allegations sought public or private injunctive relief.

Hon. Richard M. Aronson (Ret.) | JAMS Neutral | General Biography 5 Park Plaza • Suite 400 • Irvine, CA 92614 • Tel 714-939-1300 • Fax 714-939-8710 • www.jamsadr.com

10 Buckhorn v. St. Jude Heritage Medical Group
(2004) 121 Cal. App. 4th 1401: Torts
independent of the employment relationship are outside the scope of an arbitration agreement unless the alleged torts are “rooted” in the contractual relationship between the employer and employee.

Professional Liability
As a trial court judge and appellate justice, handled legal malpractice claims involving general litigation, such as failing to investigate, subpoena material witnesses, conduct adequate discovery, submit correct instructions or move for a continuance; conflicts arising from multiple representations, and whether the former client had knowledge of an actual injury or whether an actual injury occurred triggering the statute of limitations As a trial court judge and appellate justice handled medical malpractice claims, including the alleged negligent use of an esophageal stethoscope, allegations of negligently performing perineal nerve surgery, administering a facial chemical peel and negligently interpreting diagnostic tests, and covering numerous issues, including informed consent, standard of care and causation
Discovery/Privileges
McDermott Will & Emery LLP v. Superior Court
(2017) 10 Cal. App. 5th 1083: Substantial
evidence supported trial court’s ruling disqualifying a party’s attorney when the attorney received an opposing party’s inadvertently disclosed attorney-client communications, reviewed the privileged material and used it during a deposition. This violated an attorney’s duty to review an opponent’s inadvertently disclosed document no more than necessary to determine if it is privileged, notify privilege holder and refrain from using it until the parties or the court resolve any dispute about its privileged nature.

DP Pham v. Cheadle
(2016) 246 Cal. App. 4th 653: Once the proponent makes a prima facie showing of a confidential attorney-client communication, it is presumed the communication is privileged, and the burden shifts to the opponent to establish waiver, an exception or that the privilege does not apply for some other reason. The opponent may not rely on the content of the communication to make that showing.

Catalina Island Yacht Club v. Superior Court
(2015) 242 Cal. App. 4th 1116: Disputed issues
included whether a deficient privilege log allowed the trial court to find a waiver of the attorney- county privilege and the work product doctrine.

(2007) 158 Cal. App. 4th 452: Health and Safety Code

Levy v. State Farm Mutual Automobile Ins. Co.
(2007) 150 Cal. App. 4th 1: California law does

Family
In re Marriage of Minkin
(2017) 11 Cal. App. 5th 939: The parties agreed in their stipulated judgment dissolving their marriage that the husband would pay his former spouse a certain percentage of his annual bonuses as additional spousal support.

(2014) 203 Cal. App. 4th 336: Medical Injury
Compensation Reform Act (MICRA) applies to intentional torts when they arise out of or are based on the health care professional’s medical negligence. Plaintiff based his battery and intentional infliction of emotional distress claim on the anesthesiologist’s forceful manner in administering anesthesia, which amounts to a claim the defendant anesthesiologist failed to meet the applicable standard of care. Consequently, the one-year statute of limitations applied under MICRA.

PacificCare of California v. Bright Medical Associates, Inc. (2011) 198 Cal. App. 4th 1451:

Medical service plan was jointly liable for its medical provider’s malpractice when its delay in treatment led to the patient’s death. The trial court had the authority to make a good faith settlement determination between plaintiffs and the medical provider because plaintiffs alleged Hon. Richard M. Aronson (Ret.) | JAMS Neutral | General Biography 5 Park Plaza • Suite 400 • Irvine, CA 92614 • Tel 714-939-1300 • Fax 714-939-8710 • www.jamsadr.com

(2017) 147 Cal. App. 4th 1240: A new buyer of real property had no constructive notice of a lis pendens trust that was filed but not indexed until after the new buyer’s escrow closed.

City of Irvine v. County of Orange
(2013) 221 Cal. App. 4th 846: County’s application for state funding to expand one of its jail facilities did not constitute a project approval under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it did not commit the county to a definite course of action.

App. 5th 284: The nonmarital biological daughter of an absentee father who never openly held her out as his own did not have standing under Code of Civil Procedure section 377.60 to sue for wrongful death because she failed to obtain a court order declaring paternity during the father’s lifetime.

three-story office building in Arizona brought an action for breach of fiduciary duty and fraud against various entities on the periphery of the transaction, alleging a failure to disclose the true “sales load” imposed on their investment.

The delayed discovery rule did not apply.

8 Casey v. U.S. Bank National
(2005) 127 Cal.App.4th 1138: A debtor corporation’s bankruptcy trustee brought an action against several banks alleging that the banks had aided and abetted the debtor corporation’s officers and directors in looting the debtor corporation. Although a bank ordinarily does not owe any duty to non-depositors (the debtor corporation), it may incur liability for aiding and abetting its own depositors in looting the non-depositor corporation, provided the plaintiff can show the bank had knowledge of the primary wrong being committed by its depositors.

Schauer v. Mandarin Gems of Cal
. (2005) 125 Cal.App.4th 949: Divorced wife had standing as third-party beneficiary to plead cause of action for breach of express warranty against jeweler who had sold an engagement ring to her ex-husband.

(2008) 159 Cal.App.4th 316: In an action for medical negligence (based on lack of informed consent) and battery (based on the lack of any consent), denial of JNOV motion on battery claim was reversed because the verdict form omitted a finding on whether the medical procedure was performed without any consent. Jury finding that procedure was done without informed consent was not sufficient to sustain judgment on battery cause of action.

Hiser v. Bell Helicopter Textron Inc
. (2003) 111 Cal.App.4th 640: Plaintiff decedent was killed when his helicopter crashed during a fire suppression mission. Plaintiff contended the crash was caused by a defective fuel-transfer system. The jury awarded a wrongful death verdict exceeding $8 million. Substantial evidence supported the verdict.

Hernandez v. Paicius

8 and one common law cause of action for wrongful discharge in violation of public policy. After the close of evidence, defendants objected to the court’s statement of decision awarding damages to plaintiff on the ground plaintiff had failed to prove exhaustion of administrative remedies.

Defendants also moved to vacate the subsequent judgment. In response, plaintiff presented evidence of her administrative complaint and her right-to-sue letter. There was no jurisdictional error in the fundamental sense; the court had subject matter jurisdiction and the judgment was affirmed.

Mendoza v. Western Medical Center Santa Ana
(2014) 222 Cal.App.4th 1334: Plaintiff sued for
wrongful termination in violation of public policy, alleging he was terminated for reporting sexual harassment. Jury verdict in favor of plaintiff reversed for new trial. Jury was improperly instructed that plaintiff’s report of sexual harassment must be a motivating reason for the discharge rather than the substantial motivating reason.

Carter v. CB Richard Ellis, Inc
. (2004) 122 Cal.App.4th 1313: Following a verdict exceeding $1 million in an employee’s sex and age discrimination lawsuit, the court concluded the evidence was insufficient to support a
prima facie

City of Costa Mesa v. D’Allesio Investments
(2013) 214 Cal.App.4th 358: The City of Costa
Mesa and the State of California sought injunctive relief to abate a public nuisance; namely, the operation of massage parlors engaged in prostitution and other merchants engaged in the unlawful distribution of cannabis. The property owner responded with a cross-complaint for defamation alleging several city employees had made defamatory statements about activity on the property. The cross-complaint was met with an anti-SLAPP motion, which both the trial court and the Court of Appeal determined met the first prong of the anti-SLAPP analysis: The statements were made “in connection with an issue under consideration or review by a legislative, executive, or judicial body.” (§ 425, 16, subd. (e)(2).) Banning Ranch Conservancy v. City of Newport Beach
(2012) 211 Cal.App.4th 1209: Plaintiff
appealed the trial court’s denial of a writ of mandate challenging the certification of an EIR for a proposed park, claiming the city had engaged in improper “piecemealing” by failing to consider a neighboring development as part of the park “project.” The project’s definition properly excluded the neighboring development, and substantial evidence supported the EIR’s conclusions.

8 breach of express and implied warranties under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act and fraudulent concealment. There was no evidence that the manufacturer knew about the alleged electrical defect at the time of sale and thus no evidence of fraudulent concealment. But by the time the manufacturer’s duty to repurchase under Song-Beverly arose, it was aware of the defect and chose not to repair it adequately.

Kiluk v. Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC
(2019) 43 Cal.App.5th 334: Plaintiff alleged the auto
manufacturer was liable under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act for breach of warranty on the sale of a certified pre-owned vehicle. Although the Song-Beverly Act generally binds only distributors and retail sellers in the sale of used goods, the manufacturer stepped into that role by issuing an express warranty in the sale of the used vehicle.

Peterson v. Cellco Partnership
(2008) 164 Cal.App.4th 1583: Class action against seller of telephones alleging causes of action under the Unfair Competition Law and unjust enrichment.

Disputed issues included whether plaintiffs had standing under the then recently amended Business and Professions Code section 17204 to accord standing only to those who “suffered injury in fact and . . . lost money or property as a result of [the] unfair competition,” and whether plaintiff could obtain restitution where he had received all he had expected in the transaction.

Real Property
Miles v. Deutsche Bank National Trust Co
. (2015) 236 Cal.App.4th 394: In wrongful foreclosure
action, plaintiff had no equity in the foreclosed property, but because wrongful foreclosure is a tort, plaintiff was permitted to seek recovery of any damages proximately caused by the wrongdoing, including lost rental income and emotional distress.

Boschma v. Home Loan Center
(2011) 198 Cal.App.4th 230: In an action under the Unfair Competition Law and for fraud, the defendant lender had failed adequately to disclose to plaintiff that the loan would negatively amortize even if plaintiff timely made the monthly payments according to the only payment schedule provided to plaintiff at the time the loan closed.

Construction
Kemp Bros. Construction v. Titan Electric Corp
. (2007) 146 Cal.App.4th 1474: In appeal from a
right-to-attach order, the fact that the primary contractor on a public works project had the right to substitute another subcontractor under Public Contract Code section 4107 did not collaterally estop removed subcontractor from contesting subsequent prime contractor’s breach of contract action.

8 V. v. Superior Court
(2008) 167 Cal.App.4th 166: At the six-month review hearing in a dependency proceeding, the trial court terminated reunification services and set a selection and implementation hearing under Welfare and Institutions Code section 366.26. The Court of Appeal granted the mother’s petition for writ of mandate compelling the trial court to continue the matter to a 12-month review, holding that the trial court had erroneously applied the 12-month review standard instead of the six-month review standard.

Adoption of Allison C
. (2008) 164 Cal.App.4th 1004: In a proceeding under Family Code section 7822 to free a minor from the parent’s custody as a precursor to adoption, trial court found the parent had abandoned the minor and terminated parental rights. Substantial evidence supported the judgment.

Sabbah v. Sabbah
(2007) 151 Cal.App.4th 818: In an appeal from a domestic violence restraining order, the restrained party contended the court was required to have given notice under Family Code section 3044, subdivision (f) (now subdivision (h)), that a finding of domestic violence would create a rebuttable presumption that an award of custody to the restrained person would be detrimental to the best interest of the child. The notice was required in a custody dispute, not the underlying proceeding for the domestic violence restraining order.

In re Marriage of Manfer
(2006) 144 Cal.App.4th 925: In a marital dissolution proceeding, the determination of the date of separation does not depend on what third parties or the public generally believes. Rather, it depends on whether one of the parties intended to end the marriage and there was objective conduct “‘bespeak[ing] the finality of the marital relationship.’” ( Id
. at p.
927.)
Arbitration
Adolph v. Coastal Auto Sales, Inc
. (2010) 184 Cal.App.4th 1443: “A defendant may not use court proceedings for its own purposes, while remaining uncooperative with a plaintiff’s efforts to use those same court proceedings, and then, upon failing to achieve defendant’s own objectives in court, and at the time when the parties should be engaged in final trial preparation, demand arbitration for the first time.” (
Id
. at p. 1446.)
Toal v. Tardif
(2009) 178 Cal.App.4th 1208: An attorney lacks the apparent authority to sign an arbitration contract on behalf of his or her client. Without express authority to do so, an attorney does not have implied plenary authority to enter into contracts on a client’s behalf.

Rodriguez v. American Technologies, Inc
. (2006) 136 Cal.App.4th 1110: In lawsuit by
homeowners against a contractor for negligent mold remediation, the contractor moved to compel arbitration of the dispute under an arbitration agreement that expressly provided that the procedural provisions of the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA) would be utilized in the arbitration. The parties’ choice of the federal procedural requirements thus controlled over conflicting provisions of the California Arbitration Act.

. (2007) 156 Cal.App.4th 1259: Insurer
was entitled to rescind its policy of insurance
ab initio
because its insured had misrepresented

Ward General Ins. Services, Inc. v. Employers Fire Ins. Co . (2003) 114 Cal.App.4th 548: The
coverage issue here was whether a first-party insurance policy covered the loss of stored computer data not accompanied by the loss or destruction of the storage medium. “[T]he loss of the database, with its consequent economic loss, but with no loss of or damage to tangible property, was not a ‘direct physical loss of or damage to’ covered property under the terms of the subject insurance policy, and, therefore, the loss is not covered.” Honors, Memberships, and Professional Activities
