Flores v. Griffith Laboratories
The above-captioned actions both arise from a lawsuit brought by appellant Erlinda Flores (Flores) against respondent Griffith Laboratories U.S.A., Inc. (Griffith). In 1990, Flores, then represented by counsel, sued Griffith for wrongful termination and intentional infliction of emotional distress regarding her termination following her exposure to toluene while she worked at Griffith in 1989. The parties resolved the case, entering into a settlement agreement. Acting in propria persona, Flores brought a new action against Griffith in 2005, asserting that she had newly discovered evidence regarding the same toluene exposure in 1989. She also brought an action in propria persona against Christina Grace Cordoza (Cordoza), an attorney for Griffith in the 1990 case, alleging professional negligence and concealment of evidence of Floress medical records. Flores appealed in both cases after the trial court sustained demurrers without leave to amend to both complaints, and entered judgments of dismissal. On our own motion, Court consolidate the appeals, and affirm the judgments in both cases.
