We discuss how to avoid appellate sanctions, and an unusually successful motion for reconsideration:
- $50k sanctions against appellant for blowing appellate procedure.
- Motion for reconsideration was untimely, but righteous. Trial judge did not take the Court of Appeal’s hint, so writ issued. (But the trial judge was right to let the writ issue.)
- Anti-SLAPPs don’t require a line-by-line list of allegations like regular strike motions. But there’s a split on this.
- Do you need appellate specialization credits? Maybe not as many as you think if you use Lisa Perrochet’s tip.
We also discuss a case on the Racial Justice Act, a rare case reversed for lack of substantial evidence, and a Public Records Act case.
