How has the court considered the impact of a related action in determining whether to bring an action to trial?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Brooks v. The Rehab. Ctr. of Beverly Hills, B308796 (Cal. App. 2021):

[8]Because the trial court expressly considered this factor, this case is distinguishable from Dowling v. Farmers Ins. Exchange (2012) 208 Cal.App.4th 685, which held that it was error to fail[] to consider the potential impact... of appellate proceedings in a related action in determining whether it was impracticable or futile to bring [an] action to trial. (Id. at p. 688.)
