Ward v. Allstate Ins. Co. CA2/1
Plaintiffs and appellants Beatrice Ward and Karyn Ward challenge the trial court’s order denying their motion to vacate the voluntary dismissal of their case under Code of Civil Procedure section 473, subdivision (b), based on a mistake of law. They also appeal the order granting defendant and respondent Allstate Insurance Company’s motion for summary adjudication. As we shall explain, the court did not err in denying the motion to vacate the dismissal because plaintiffs failed to demonstrate that their counsel made a reasonable and honest mistake of law. In addition, we dismiss the appeal of the order granting summary adjudication because it is not appealable.
