What is the standard of review applicable to review of a trial court's order involving discovery matters or other matters?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Gerner v. Superior Court of L.A. Cnty., 204 Cal.Rptr.3d 595 (Cal. App. 2016):
"The standard of review generally applicable to review of a trial court's order involving discovery matters or other matters where the trial court has discretionary power is abuse of discretion. (See Britts v. Superior Court(2006) 145 Cal.App.4th 1112, 1123 [52 Cal.Rptr.3d 185].) An abuse of discretion is found where a court exceeds the bounds of reason in light of the circumstances under consideration. (
[204 Cal.Rptr.3d 615]
