California State Bar #45226 ↗ · Approval recorded November 4, 2026

How we record review approval

What the court decided

The court rejected using full billed amounts from the care at issue as proof of other losses. The bills were subject to insurance discounts.

Where the rule has limits

This does not bar proof of all future care or pain. Those losses need an appropriate factual basis.
