The following excerpt is from Brooks v. The Rehab. Ctr. of Beverly Hills, B308796 (Cal. App. 2021):
[8]Because the trial court expressly considered this factor, this case is distinguishable from Dowling v. Farmers Ins. Exchange (2012) 208 Cal.App.4th 685, which held that it was error to fail[] to consider the potential impact... of appellate proceedings in a related action in determining whether it was impracticable or futile to bring [an] action to trial. (Id. at p. 688.)
