Burdett v. Caselli
Francis Doyle and Anthony Caselli appeal an order denying their special motion to strike a complaint under Code of Civil Procedure section 425.16 (section 425.16), the anti-SLAPP statute. Doyle and Caselli contend they met their burden to show that the legal malpractice lawsuit brought against them by Bonnie Burdett and Joyce Anthony, successor trustees of the KMP Trust, arose from petitioning activity on behalf of their client, former KMP Trustee, James Valentine. Court conclude that Burdett and Anthony's action was not subject to dismissal as a SLAPP suit, and therefore, affirm the order.
