What is the test for dismissing with prejudice each of the causes of action as to all parties including fictitious defendants?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Semel v. Ashouri, B263937 (Cal. App. 2016):

Appellants claim that the trial court erred in dismissing with prejudice each of the causes of action as to all parties, including fictitious defendants, because they may discover incontestable evidence at some point. We need not consider this argument, which is not supported by citation to appropriate authority. (People v. Turner (1994) 8 Cal.4th 137, 214, fn. 19.)
