Newport Harbor Offices & Marina, LLC v. Morris
The California Supreme Court, in Baral v. Schnitt (2016) 1 Cal.5th 376 (Baral), held a special motion to strike under the California anti SLAPP statute, Code of Civil Procedure section 425.16 (section 425.16), may be directed to specific allegations of protected activity constituting a claim for relief within a pleaded count that also includes allegations of unprotected activity. Based on Baral, defendants and appellants Morris Cerullo World Evangelism (Cerullo), Plaza del Sol Real Estate Trust (Plaza del Sol) and Roger Artz (collectively Defendants) assert the trial court erred in denying their anti SLAPP motion.
