Baker v. Lackey
In November 2005, plaintiff and appellant Baker filed a complaint accusing defendant and respondent Lackey of fraud and deceit in making a claim against Bakers insurance carrier based on minor automobile accident occurring on San Pablo Avenue in Berkeley almost a year earlier. After a court trial which must have lasted no more than an hour or so, and featured only the in pro per parties appearing as witnesses, the trial court ruled in favor of Lackey. It found both that Baker had not proven that Lackey had committed any fraud nor that Baker personallyas distinguished from his insurance companyhad suffered any loss. Court strongly agree with both conclusions and hence affirm.
