Klahn v. Kimco Realty Corp.
Daniel P. Klahn, Sr. appeals from a judgment of dismissal after the trial court sustained a demurrer to his complaint without leave to amend. Respondents Kimco Realty Corporation (Kimco), a management company for El Camino North Shopping Center in Oceanside, California and Louise Chappins (collectively respondents), the shopping center's property manager, demurrered on grounds Klahn lacked standing to sue because the real party in interest was a defunct limited liability corporation. Respondents further argued Klahn did not allege sufficient facts to state causes of action for intentional interference with contract, negligence based on a contractual breach, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and unfair business practices (Bus. & Prof. Code, § 17200 et seq.).
On appeal, Klahn does not address the merits of the trial court's judgment or cogently explain why his complaint suffices to state proper causes of action. Nor does Klahn comply with the California Rules of Court applicable to the substance and form of his briefs. We conclude Klahn has abandoned his appellate contentions, to the extent they are ascertainable, and he has not overcome the legal presumption in favor of the judgment's correctness. We therefore affirm.
