GMSR persuades California Supreme Court that economic loss rule doesn’t bar all fraudulent concealment claims between contracting parties
GMSR persuades California Supreme Court that economic loss rule doesn’t bar all fraudulent concealment claims between contracting parties
The California Supreme Court resolved a split of authority, holding that a plaintiff can assert a fraudulent concealment claim based on conduct occurring during a contractual relationship if (1) “the elements of the claim can be established independently of the parties’ contractual rights and obligations,” and (2) “the tortious conduct exposes the plaintiff to a risk of harm beyond the reasonable contemplation of the parties when they entered into the contract.”
