Conditional sale contracts.
Summary
Existing law governs conditional sales contracts for motor vehicles, as defined. A willful violation of those provisions is a misdemeanor. In an action on a contract or purchase order subject to those provisions, existing law requires reasonable attorney's fees and costs to be awarded to the prevailing party. This bill would limit the award of attorney's fees to a prevailing party in an action instituted by a person who has suffered injury in fact and has lost money or property as a result of a violation of those provisions.
