RATTAGAN (MICHAEL R.) v. UBER TECHNOLOGIES, INC.


Opinion filed

Accordingly, we answer the certified question, as reframed: Under California law, a plaintiff may assert a cause of action for fraudulent concealment based on conduct occurring in the course of a contractual relationship, if the elements of the claim can be established independently of the parties' contractual rights and obligations and the tortious conduct exposes the plaintiff to a risk of harm beyond the reasonable contemplation of the parties when they entered into the contract.
