Kea v. Ly CA2/2
Sok Houet Phan (appellant) appeals from a judgment entered following a bench trial. The judgment invalidated a purported 2015 election of the Board of Directors of the Khmer Buddhist Association (KBA). Appellant was one of the declared winners of the invalid 2015 election.
Appellant was recently before this court in a related matter. In Khmer Buddhist Association v. Phan, we affirmed a trial court judgment invalidating certain purported real property transfers from KBA to appellant’s organization, the “Buddha For World Peace Organization” (BWPO), and awarding KBA $1,052,337 for appellant’s repeated and open violations of Penal Code section 496. We refer to the prior opinion as necessary.
Following the illegal transfers of property, appellant and other members of BWPO purported to hold a special election in January 2015. Appellant declared he had been elected vice chairman of KBA.
