2405 DEPUBLISHED [SEE #2293] For res judicata purposes, a judgment entered by stipulation is as conclusive a bar as a judgment rendered after trial, so long as the party against whom the bar is asserted and a party to the previous litigation were in a mutual or successive relationship to the same rights of property, or there was such an identification in interest of one person with the other as to make the judgment apply to the same legal rights.CitationAMERICAN INTERNATIONAL v SUPERIOR COURT (Grecian Formula) 70 CA4 406 [See: H&SC 25249.5; Bernhard v B of A 19 C2 807; Citizens v Seadrift 60 CA4 1053; CA State Auto v Superior Court 50 C3 658]
