400 See Harding Lawson Assoc. v. Superior Court (1992) 10 Cal.App.4th 7 [12 Cal.Rptr.2d 538, 539]. Please note that while Williams v. Superior Court (2017) 3 Cal.5th 531, 557 fn. 8 disapproved of this case and other cases for assuming that a compelling interest or compelling need was automatically required without conducting the inquiry required by Hill , the California Supreme Court also held that this and other cases may have been correct to require a compelling interest or compelling need and many of the cases made the correct ultimate conclusion as to whether the information should or should not have been discoverable. Thus, until further guidance is provided by the courts, the ultimate conclusions of this case appear to remain good law. 401 El Dorado Savings & Loan Assn. v.
