Hanssler v. Eskanos & Adler
Defendant Eskanos & Adler, P.C. appeals from the denial of its motion to strike the complaint of plaintiffs Hayley Hanssler and Scott W. Hanssler under Code of Civil Procedure section 425.16 (anti-SLAPP motion; all further references are to this code unless otherwise stated). It contends the court erred when it concluded resolution of the underlying lawsuit mooted the motion. Court agree. In addition, because the issue of whether defendant would be entitled to recover attorney fees should it prevail on the motion was not before the court, it should not have been a basis for denying the motion. Court reverse the order.
