Representative Matters

Litigation

  • Successfully Defeated A Lawsuit Against A City In An Anti-SLAPP Case (2011) - LCW attorneys successfully defeated a lawsuit against the City and won an appeal in an Anti-SLAPP case.  On April 13, 2011, in an unpublished decision, the Court of Appeal affirmed the trial court's order granting the Anti-SLAPP motion in favor of the City defendants.  The Court also determined that the trial court did not provide a sufficient explanation for awarding less than the full amount of attorney's fees, and remanded the case back to the trial court to reconsider the amount of attorney's fees to be awarded to the City defendants.
