1083 In deciding whether a party received a judgment more favorable than an offer of compromise made under CCP 998, the amount of the judgment should be considered before deducting the workers' compensation lien; a non-settling party against whom judgment is rendered is entitled to a setoff for sums paid by settling parties, even though the jury determined that the settling parties were without fault.CitationPOIRE v PECK/JONES (Pre-lien) 39 CA4 1832 [See: CCP 877, 998; Tech-Bilt v Woodward-Clyde 38 C3 488; Manthey v San Luis Rey Downs 16 CA4 782]
