UCL SLAPP decision modified
Yesterday the Court of Appeal modified its decision in Jewett v. Capital One Bank, ___ Cal.App.4th ___ (Nov. 25, 2003) (discussed in my post dated 12/02/03) by removing references to the trial court's fees and costs award, including language ordering the trial court to consider ordering fees and costs to the plaintiff instead. The modification also deletes language that would have awarded the plaintiff her costs on appeal. According to the order, which can be accessed here, this modification effects "no change in the judgment." The respondents who sought rehearing probably believe otherwise (see the docket). The original opinion is available here.
