California Court of Appeal


Shahbazian v. City of Ranchos Palos Verdes, 271562

Affirming the denial of a special motion to strike under the Code of Civil Procedure in the case of a family challenging the issuance of a permit for a fence granted to a neighbor, while denying their own request for a permit to build a deck, because the city's decisions to issue or deny permits do not constitute protected speech and granting such a motion would chill citizens' attempts to challenge government action.
