What is the joint and several liability of defendants in a personal injury action?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Moor, 2d Crim. No. B256126 (Cal. App. 2016):

The trial court ordered that liability for victim restitution would be joint and several. ( 1202.4, subd. (f); People v. Neely (2009) 176 Cal.App.4th 787, 800.) The abstract of judgment should be corrected to clarify that the defendants' liability for victim restitution is joint and several.
