Pekin v. Scagliotti
Patrick Pekin (Pekin) sued Richard Scagliotti (Scagliotti), as an individual and a former member of the San Benito County Board of Supervisors (Board), the Board, and the San Benito County Financing Corporation (SBCFC), "a wholly owned subsidiary of San Benito County" (County). In this appeal, Pekin is challenging the trial court's order denying his motion to disqualify opposing counsel, Michael Serverian.[1] Pekin had alleged that Serverian's joint representation of Scagliotti and the County involved a disqualifying actual conflict of interest. The County as an entity is not a separately named defendant.
We affirm the court's order refusing to disqualify attorney Serverian.
