Description
This case concerns the liability of a bank whose wrongful dishonor of plaintiff's check resulted in plaintiff's arrest and temporary detention on a charge of petty theft. For the reasons which we shall subsequently set forth we have concluded: (1) that although the payee's complaint to the police constituted the immediate cause of the arrest, a sufficient causal connection remains between the arrest and the bank's dishonor of plaintiff's check to afford plaintiff a cause of action against the bank; (2) that damage to plaintiff's reputation and impairment of her health incident to plaintiff's arrest constitute "actual damage" within the meaning of Civil Code section 3320.*fn1
