Pincus comphrensive anti-SLAPP seminar 10/6 at LA Athletic Club in downtown LA.

Please join me and my colleagues for a 4-hour comprehensive anti-SLAPP workshop sponsored by Pincus Professional education on Wed. 10/6/10 from 1:00pm to 5:30pm. The Panelists will by myself and my distinguished colleagues, Judge Amy Hogue, Phil Goar, Senior Judicial Attorney for the Court of Appeal 2nd Dist., Div. One, and Ben Shatz, Esq. of Manatt Phelps LA. The seminar materials contain a variety of key SLAPP cases and legislative history as well as an actual SLAPP complaint, SLAPP motion, SLAPP discovery motion and other SLAPP pleadings. There have been a lot of new developments in anti-SLAPP law over the past year, including a very recent amendment that became effective this year which precludes a prevailing SLAPP defendant from recovering SLAPP fees in cases where the liability is based on alleged violations of the Ralph M. Brown Act.

I look forward to seeing you there. Go to my website www.slapplaw.com for more details.
