California Court of Appeal

In an attorney's special motion to strike plaintiff's complaint, arising from her representation of plaintiff's ex-wife in postmarital dissolution proceedings, trial court's judgment is affirmed where: 1) attorney's filing a copy of plaintiff's credit report in support of a motion was protected petitioning activity; 2) plaintiff failed to meet his burden of demonstrating probability of success on his claims; and 3) plaintiff failed to show either that the trial court abused its discretion in awarding the attorney fees and costs or that it erred in denying his motion for reconsideration.
