Description
A group of governmental entities acting for themselves, as class representatives, and on behalf of the People of the State of California, filed a class action against a group of lead manufacturers. The governmental entities alleged that the manufacturers were liable on theories of strict product liability, negligence and fraud for damages caused by lead paint, should be required to abate the public nuisance created by lead paint, and should be enjoined and ordered to pay restitution, disgorge profits and pay civil penalties due to their unfair business practices regarding lead paint. The superior court sustained the manufacturers demurrers to the public nuisance causes of action. The governmental entities sought leave to file an amended complaint adding a cause of action for continuing trespass. The court denied leave on the ground that the proposed allegations did not state a cause of action. The manufacturers moved for summary judgment on statute of limitations grounds on the remaining causes of action, and the court granted the motion and dismissed the action.
