Today’s Daily Journal has an article (subscription required) by Judge Rex Heeseman of the Los Angeles County Superior Court. Judge Heeseman was written several editorials on the topic of punitive damages. In this one, he discusses some of the published California decisions on punitive damages, including Nickerson, Davis, and Nevarrez. He concludes that none of these cases can be described as “blockbusters.” I tend to agree, although I think there’s a chance the California Supreme Court may take an interest in Nevarrez.
