Walsh v. Kass
Plaintiff sued the attorney who represented her in a prior litigation, defendant, and his law firm, defendant Kass & Kass, for legal malpractice in connection with Kass's handling of the prior litigation. Defendant responded with a special motion to strike under the anti-SLAPP statute, Code of Civil Procedure section 425.16, contending that his conduct of the prior litigation constituted protected activity and that Walsh was unlikely to prevail in her malpractice action. The trial court denied the special motion, concluding that the conduct on which this malpractice action is based does not constitute protected activity under the anti-SLAPP statute. Court agree and affirm.
