P1115 In deciding a motion to disqualify an attorney, the trial court's resolution of factual issues arising from competing declarations is conclusive on the reviewing court; based on evidence taken at a hearing on the motion a trial court's finding that an attorney who formerly belonged to a firm that represented a party now adverse to the attorney's client had access to but did not acquire confidential information justified its denial of a motion to disqualify the attorney.CitationOCHOA v FORDEL (Attorney Disqualification) 146 CA4 898 [See: R of PC 3-310(E); Adams v Aerojet-General 86 CA4 1324, P/AT 3/01; Rosenfeld v.
