1456 A trial court did not abuse its discretion in imposing sanctions for maintaining a frivolous action on plaintiffs who were passengers in a vehicle struck in the rear and who, after an arbitrator found it to be without merit, requested trial de novo in their claim against the driver of the vehicle in which they were riding, and whose attorney's opening statement cited no facts from which liability could be found.CitationMUEGA v MENOCAL (Frivolous Action) 50 CA4 868 [See: CCP 128.5; Dwyer v Crocker 194 CA3 1418; Tenderloin v Sparks 8 CA4 299]
