California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Dupree v. Sajahtera, Inc., B260615 (Cal. App. 2016):

"The appropriate test for abuse of discretion is whether the trial court exceeded the bounds of reason. When two or more inferences can reasonably be deduced from the facts, the reviewing court has no authority to substitute its decision for that of the trial court. [Citations.]" (Shamblin v. Brattain (1988) 44 Cal.3d 474, 478-479.)
