P. v. Stein CA2/5
The California Attorney General filed a civil action against then-attorney and defendant Mitchell Stein (defendant), as well as others, for engaging in unfair business and advertising practices and obtained a temporary restraining order (TRO) and preliminary injunction against defendant. After settling with and obtaining final judgments against all of the other defendants, the Attorney General moved for summary adjudication of a declaratory relief claim seeking a declaration that the Attorney General was the prevailing party in the action against defendant. The trial court granted the motion and entered a judgment against defendant declaring the Attorney General the prevailing party and dismissing without prejudice all remaining claims against defendant.
On appeal, defendant challenges the summary adjudication order as legally erroneous, as well as the orders granting the TRO and preliminary injunction.
