Description
In this case, we confront a fundamental issue in the interpretation of Californias settlement incentive scheme. May costs be shifted against a prevailing party who rejected a statutory settlement offer (under Code Civ. Proc., ? 998) that would have required this party to forego other lawsuits as well as dismissing the one involved in the case at trial? The trial court answered this question in the affirmative. Neither the language, legislative intent, nor policy justification of section 998 supports this interpretation. Accordingly, we are compelled to reverse.
