The following excerpt is from Dec v. E-loan, A126331, No. CV08-2127 (Cal. App. 2010):
Lastly, Dec quotes Teselle v. McLoughlin (2009) 173 Cal.App.4th 156, 174, in which the court stated: "However, financial abuse of an elder can be stated not only against the person who takes the property, but also against the person who secretes, appropriates, or retains the property in bad faith." This legal principle is not in dispute.
