Are evidentiary rulings reviewed under an abuse of discretion standard of review?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Ent. Career v. The Better Bus. Bureau Of, B218169, No. SC093400 (Cal. App. 2011):
I do not agree that it is clear that the evidentiary rulings in summary proceedings are reviewed under an abuse of discretion standard of review. (See Reid v. Google, Inc. (2010) 50 Cal.4th 512, 535.) The majority agrees with the trial court evidentiary rulings as a matter of law. Thus, there was no need to also invoke the abuse of discretion standard of review.
