What is the limitation on personal injury claims by a plaintiff in a personal injury case?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Miller v. National Broadcasting Co., 187 Cal.App.3d 1463, 232 Cal.Rptr. 668 (Cal. App. 1986):

In the case at bench, the daughter's claims of injury fall within the policy limitation of Flynn v. Higham, supra, 149 Cal.App.3d 677, 197 Cal.Rptr. 145, because the principal thrust of the daughter's claims were due to her relationship to the victims of the defendants--her parents--rather than the defendants' conduct toward her.
