Kempton v. Harris
Plaintiffs Kimberly J. Kempton and Charles G. Kinney appeal from a judgment which found that defendants Carolyn Cooper, Michael Olivares, Ben Harris, Jeffrey Harris, Judy Harris, and Karen Numme were not liable for invasion of plaintiffs privacy and which denied plaintiffs request for injunctive relief under Code of Civil Procedure sections 526 and 527.6. We find that the trial courts rulings to exclude evidence were not an abuse of discretion. We conclude that the denial of plaintiffs untimely request for special findings was not error, that the statement of decision was not improper, and that delay in issuing the statement of decision provides no ground for reversal. Plaintiffs have not shown that the trial court erroneously refused plaintiffs proposed modification to an instruction on invasion of privacy. Plaintiffs have also failed to show error in alleged misstatements and omissions of fact and law in the statement of decision and in the judgment. We conclude that the trial court properly awarded attorneys fees as costs under Code of Civil Procedure section 527.6. We conclude that the judgment for defendants should be affirmed.
