California Court of Appeal

In an action for defamation based on statements about plaintiff and his business on Internet Web sites, trial court's grant of defendant's motion to strike the complaint under the Anti-SLAPP law is affirmed where plaintiff's claims arise from the exercise of defendant's right of speech, and plaintiff has failed to establish a probability of success on the merits of his defamation claim.
