Behle v. Tanner CA2/8
The complaint that underlies this appeal arose from a series of events related to defendant, Lisa Tanner’s, dispute with her estranged husband, Michael Tanner, who was in a postseparation romantic relationship with plaintiff. Defendant made a special motion to strike this complaint pursuant to California’s “anti-SLAPP” statute, Code of Civil Procedure section 425.16. The trial court denied the special motion, finding that the case did not involve protected speech. Applying the required de novo standard of review, we agree and affirm the judgment.
