Aden v. OneWest Bank CA1/3
Plaintiff Mary Aden appeals judgments entered in favor of defendants OneWest Bank, N.A. (OneWest), Financial Freedom Acquisition LLC (FFA), and the law firm of Malcolm Cisneros, a law corporation (MC), following the entry of an order sustaining without leave to amend demurrers to plaintiff’s third amended complaint. The amended complaint seeks to recover damages based on a variety of theories, all arising out of the foreclosure of a reverse mortgage on her home. We conclude the court erred in sustaining the demurrer to the causes of action for breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing and financial elder abuse. Accordingly, we shall reverse the judgment entered in favor of OneWest and FFA and remand with instructions to issue an order overruling the demurrer with respect to these causes of action. We shall affirm the judgment as to MC on the ground that its conduct is protected by the litigation privilege.
