How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• “SLAPP litigation, generally, is litigation without merit filed to dissuade or punish the exercise of First Amendment rights of defendants.”
• “Because winning is not a SLAPP plaintiff’s primary motivation, defendants’ traditional safeguards against meritless actions[] (suits for malicious prosecution and abuse of process, requests for sanctions) are inadequate to counter SLAPPs.” (quotation marks omitted)
