California Court of Appeal January 8, 2004, E033453 (Fireman's Fund Insurance v. Sparks Construction, Inc.)

Opinion

RICHLI, Acting P. J.

The original complaint in this action contained Doe allegations. The first amended complaint did not.

After

filing the first amended complaint, the plaintiff served two new defendants with the

original

summons and complaint, along with amendments purporting to name them as Does. These defendants filed answers, and all parties proceeded to litigate apace.
