In Chitsazzadeh v. Kramer & Kaslow, 2011 DJDAR 14689 (2011), the California Court of Appeal for the Second Appellate District decided an interesting case under Code of Civil Procedure Section 425.16, a special motion to strike under the California anti SLAPP statute.

The defendant in the case was a law firm, Kramer & Kaslow (“the Kramer firm”), who represented Brake Land Inc. and Abolfalz Sharjari as plaintiffs in a prior action. That case resulted in summary judgment being granted to the defendants, Mohammed Chitsazzadeh and Mansoureh Shajari, in the original action.
