One of my attorneys has been following this case and sent me this link to the L.A. Times article:

I've followed other cases, too, and most all seem to be related to blatant, over-aggressive and wholesale application of this law.
For the living, this is a painful situation to be caught up in.
The major takeaway is that A.P. is a tool of last resort, not an objective to search for scenarios to apply this law (which is available in all 50 states).
