Undoing A Judgment, Without A Retrial
My RSCH appellate group colleagues Jim Martin and Ben Shatz have the cover story (PDF) in this month's Los Angeles Lawyer magazine (PDF of issue here), discussing stipulated reversals on appeal of judgments entered by trial courts. This is something parties might wish to do, for example, as part of a settlement reached during an appeal, but decisions and legislative changes in recent years have made the process more complicated. The article provides context and guidelines pertinent to obtaining such a reversal under California law.
