Overview: Notice to the Attorney General of claims under Proposition 65 was insufficient because a list of carcinogens that was present pretty much everywhere, such as in furniture, dry paint, and electric lights, was not meaningfully differentiated and thus was no help in deciding whether to bring a claim in the name of the public.

COURT OF APPEAL OF CALIFORNIA, SECOND APPELLATE DISTRICT, DIVISION THREE, March 27, 2006, Filed
View this case - free
|
Overview: Anti-SLAPP motions under Code Civ. Proc., § 425.16, should have been granted in a malicious prosecution action because a declaration by counsel that plaintiff was not liable in the underlying action was insufficient, as a matter of law, to establish that defendant lacked probable cause to pursue that action. There was no probability of success.
