Leonard v. Retailer’s Credit Assn. CA3
Cross-complainant Kathleen Leonard appeals from a judgment entered in favor of cross-defendant Retailer’s Credit Association (RCA) after the trial court granted RCA’s special motion to strike pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure section 425.16, the anti-SLAPP statute (strategic lawsuits against public participation). On appeal, Leonard contends the trial court erred in granting the motion, because it was not filed within 60 days of the filing of the operative first amended cross-complaint (FACC). Leonard also argues the motion should not have been granted because RCA cannot establish that her causes of action arise from protected activity, and Leonard can show a probability of success on the merits. Finally, Leonard argues that the trial court erred in denying her request for attorney’s fees and costs. Finding no error, we affirm.
