Diaz v. Shackelford
Defendant and appellant George W. Shackelford (defendant) challenges a trial court judgment awarding damages to plaintiff and respondent Jose Diaz (plaintiff) arising from a labor claim. He contends that (1) the trial court judgment violates the doctrine of res judicata, (2) the trial court erroneously admitted certain evidence, and (3) the trial court failed to prepare a proper statement of decision.
Court find that the trial courts statement of decision contravened Code of Civil Procedure sections 632 and 634. Accordingly, we reverse the judgment and remand for the preparation of a statement of decision that addresses defendants affirmative defense of res judicata and jurisdiction based upon action of the Labor Commissioner.
