    California Damages: Law and Proof, Fifth Edition offers busy practitioners an all-inclusive reference for analysis on the law and proof of compensatory and punitive damages in tort actions, including associated evidentiary issues. Previously, these issues had to be found by researching several different titles. This is the first book in California that pulls the subject together so that plaintiffs and defense lawyers alike save countless hours in trial preparation and settlement negotiation. It examines the most recent law on these important topics:

  • Personal injury
  • Injury to spouses and children
  • Wrongful death
  • Property damages
  • Fraud
  • Defamation
  • Non-economic damages
  • Infliction of emotional distress
  • Punitive damages
  • Contribution and indemnity

    Johns, Leland M.


    Leland M. Johns earned his law degree (J.D.) at the University of Iowa in 1958. After two years of law practice he joined the editorial staff of a major law book publishing company in San Francisco. During ten years of editorial work he wrote numerous articles for books on all aspects of California law and practice.

    Mr. Johns started as a member of the California bar in January of 1963. Beginning in 1971, he served as a research attorney for the California Court of Appeal, First District, where he served the court for more than 25 years.

    Mr. Johns passed away in 1999. Since that date, California attorneys have produced the updates, and are continuing Mr. Johns's tradition of providing a balanced statement of damages law in a clear, succinct, and organized fashion. As a testament to Mr. Johns's dedication, this text has been cited in more than 20 California appellate decisions.
