Kwan v. Hofferth CA2/5
This appeal arises in connection with three lawsuits filed concerning landslides that occurred in the Malibu area in 2010 and 2011. The suits were consolidated, and the majority of the claims were resolved via a settlement agreement and a series of stipulated judgments. Cross-complainant and appellant Cho Yiu Kwan declined to participate in the settlement and continued to pursue his claims against the other parties, including cross-defendant and respondent Megan Hofferth. The trial court ultimately presided over an uncontested bench trial at which Kwan presented evidence in an effort to establish Hofferth and her co-defendant husband, A. Dean Isaacson, were liable for certain damages. The trial court determined Isaacson was liable but found Hofferth was not.
