Sanctions:  $34,000 In CCP § 128.5 Sanctions Affirmed Against Litigant Unsuccessfully Trying To Upset Earlier Adjudication Based Upon Extrinsic Fraud

Among Other Things, Damning Admissions In Debtor Exam Sealed The Deal.

            In Quadri v. Alkayali, Case No. G054914 (4th Dist., Div. 3 Apr. 19, 2018) (unpublished), the 4/3 DCA—in a panel decision authored by Justice Bedsworth—affirmed around a $ 34,000 sanction against a litigant losing an “extrinsic fraud” challenge to a prior verdict.  Among other things, the affirmance was justified because the appellant had made disavowals in earlier debtor examinations of having any ownership interest in a company which was contrary to the contention that he was indeed the controlling shareholder of the company years later.
