2910 The Civil Code section requiring judicial approval for an action against an attorney for civil conspiracy with a client does not apply to an action based on conduct that violated an independent duty the attorney owed plaintiff or conduct that went beyond representation of the client and was for the attorney's own benefit, so it may not apply to any viable action against an attorney for civil conspiracy with a client.CitationPAVICICH v SANTUCCI (Attorney Conspiracy) 85 CA4 382 [See: CivC 1714.10; Wolfrich v USAA 149 CA3 1206; Doctors' Co v Superior Court 49 C3 39; Applied v Litton 7 C4 503, T/AT 5/94; Hung v Wang 8 CA4 908; Westamco v Lee 69 CA4 481, T/AT 2/99]
