Newdow v. Miles
This is an appeal from an order of the Contra Costa County Superior Court denying appellant’s motion to strike (SLAPP motion) filed under Code of Civil Procedure section 425.16 (section 425.16) and triggered by respondent’s libel action against him. The superior court ruled that, although respondent was clearly a public figure and the issue involved one of public interest, respondent “has produced sufficient evidence” to show that he may have a legally cognizable claim. Court agreed with the trial court and affirmed its order.
