Court determination of 'good faith settlement' bars challenges under the HSAA

In Fullerton Redevelopment Agency v. Southern California Gas Company, the court held, once a trial court determines good faith settlement pursuant to Sections 877 and 877.6 of the California Code of Civil Procedure, the settlement can no longer be challenged under Section 25363 of the California Health & Safety Code, a provision of the Carpenter-Presley-Tanner Hazardous Substance Account Act (HSAA).
