Can a motor vehicle be held liable for failing to prevent harassment?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Dickson v. Burke Williams, Inc., 184 Cal.Rptr.3d 774, 234 Cal.App.4th 1307 (Cal. App. 2015):

Scott v. Ford Motor Co. (2014) 224 Cal.App.4th 1492, 1499, 169 Cal.Rptr.3d 823.) The issue of whether in this case there can be liability for failure to prevent harassment under section 12940, subdivision (k), however, is a question of law that we review de novo. ( Trujillo, supra, 63 Cal.App.4th at p. 284, 73 Cal.Rptr.2d 596.)
