How have the courts applied laches against the application of laches?

California, United States of America

The following excerpt is from JUDITH WALKER v. STEVEN ROTHENBERG, B218222, No. SD003578 (Cal. App. 2010):

Appellant's next argument against the application of laches is factual. She claims that respondent's concealment and perjury caused appellant's delay in bringing her claim. This factual argument was rejected by the trial court, which found that appellant "had 'actual knowledge' of the purportedly improper transfers in 1996." This factual finding is reviewed for substantial evidence. (Bowers v. Bernards, supra, 150 Cal.App.3d at pp. 873-874.)
