2002Relying on California v. ARC America Corp., supra, 490 U.S. 93 , the plaintiff further argues that the trial court identified an inconsistency between federal and state law that does not exist inasmuch as federal antitrust law does not preempt state statutes that authorize the recovery of damages by indirect purchasers. 29 We find the plaintiffs reliance on California v. ARC America Corp., supra, 490 U.S. 93 , misplaced.

1996As one court has stated: "The common thread that holds together the exceptions to the privity rule is the lack of an adversarial relationship between the attorney's client and the third party." Cotroneo v. Von Schilling , 9 CSCR 133 (January 5, 1994, Lewis, J.).

Gray, 110 Cal. 339 (1895); has seen fit to abandon its previous position: "The determination whether in a specific case the defendant will be held liable to a third person not in privity is a matter of policy and involves the balancing of various factors, among which are the extent to which the transaction was intended to affect the plaintiff, the foreseeability of harm to him, the degree of certainty that the plaintiff suffered injury, the closeness of the connection between the defendant's conduct and the injury suffered, th
