P1453 An offer of compromise under Code of Civil Procedure section 998 may be served simultaneously with the summons and complaint; whether the offer is reasonable is determined within the sound discretion of the trial court, which will not be disturbed except for a clear abuse of discretion; a judgment more favorable than the offer is prima facie evidence it was reasonable.CitationBARBA v PEREZ (998 Offer) 166 CA4 444 [See: CCP 998; Nelson v Anderson 72 CA4 111, T/AT 6/99; Elrod v Oregon Cummins 195 CA3 692]
