Smith v. County of Alameda CA1/3
Plaintiff Van Smith sued the County of Alameda (County) and an assistant county clerk-recorder, Matthew Yankee (collectively, defendants), for allegedly submitting a false instrument—a recorded deed of trust—that allowed the County to prevail in prior litigation. On appeal, Smith challenges (1) an order granting defendants’ motion to declare Smith a vexatious litigant and (2) an order granting their special motion to strike Smith’s complaint pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure section 425.16 as a strategic lawsuit against public participation (anti-SLAPP motion). We shall affirm the challenged orders.
