Tye v. Papp CA4/2
In an earlier appeal in this case, we affirmed the trial court’s grant of defendants’ special motion to strike, also known as an anti-SLAPP motion. During the appeal, defendants moved for attorney’s fees and costs for prevailing on the anti-SLAPP motion, and the trial court awarded much of the amount requested.
In this appeal, which concerns that fee award, we find that the trial court’s legal analysis as to why the fee motion was timely was erroneous. However, we are unable to resolve a factual issue that will determine whether the motion was timely. Accordingly, we reverse and remand for further proceedings.
