People v. Dancy

This appeal arises in an action for fraud and breach of contract brought by Louis Navellier (Navellier) and Navellier Management, Inc. (NMI; collectively, plaintiffs) against Kenneth Sletten (defendant). Defendant moved to strike the complaint under the anti-SLAPP statute (Code Civ. Proc., § 425.16; hereafter § 425.16), the motion was denied, and we affirmed (Navellier v. Sletten (December 27, 2000, A090058) [nonpub. opn.]). The Supreme Court reversed and remanded with instructions to reconsider our decision in light of its opinion. (Navellier v. Sletten (2002) 29 Cal.4th 82, 96.)
