Taitz v. Dunn
The parties in this case were candidates for the Republican nomination for the office of Secretary of State in the June 8, 2010, California statewide primary election. Orly Taitz was defeated by Damon Dunn in the statewide primary election, and Dunn was later defeated by incumbent Debra Bowen at the November 2010 statewide general election. After the election, Taitz filed a lawsuit against Dunn alleging election and voter fraud, as well as common law fraud. In her complaint, Taitz sought a criminal investigation, declaratory relief, damages, and punitive damages due to the alleged fraud. The court granted Dunn's motion for judgment on the pleadings (JOP). On appeal, Taitz asserts she adequately pled an election contest and a cause of action for common law fraud. We disagree and affirm the judgment.
