How to recover Punitive Damages in California Civ. Code 3294
As a Plaintiff in California State or Federal Court an injured party will probably want to allege and seek PUNITIVE DAMAGES award. But what is this? What does a Plaintiff have to prove? Who bears the burden of proof on this issue?
Punitive damages is designed to “punish and deter” a bad actor Defendant. The award should bear some relationship to actual damages and can be reduced on appeal (on due process grounds) if too high.
Fraud should always be plead with specificity. This is general legal information only and not legal advice or a substitute for legal advice.
Note: When insurance companies are trying to collect punitive damages (for example in a subrogation matter) punitive damages may not be assignable. Make sure to look into this. A key case on point is Murphy v. Allstate Insurance Co. 17 Cal.3d 937,942 (1976). If so, you may want to consider a Motion to Strike this from the complaint. See this video for more information on that type of motion:
