DKN’sreliance on Melander v. Western National Bank (1913) 21 Cal.App. 462 is also misplaced asit also contains no discussion of res judicata and actually supports Faerber’s position. The case discusses a court’s ability to enter separate judgments in a single lawsuit pursuant to Cal. Civ. Proc. Code section 580, where a default judgment was obtained against somebutnot all of the named joint and severalliability defendants. It did not, as DKN contends, endorse the practice of multiple lawsuits for the same breach of the same contract, but rather acknowledged that suing | all of the parties in one action was the “proper practice” and “ex necessitate.”
