Starr v. Ashbrook
G060597
California Court of Appeal, Fourth Appellate District · Filed
Published · citable
Holding
The court held that the surcharge cause of action alleged by Jonathan Starr arose from Ashbrook’s alleged waste and misuse of trust assets—not from protected petitioning or speech activity—so the claim did not arise out of activity covered by California’s anti‑SLAPP statute and the motion to strike was properly denied. ---
