On October 10, 1996, Masquelier assigned to INC "whatever rights, if any, he had in the '360 patent that reverted to him from Horphag." [FN 7] Code Amendments 1873-1874, chapter 612, section 11, page 184; see Comment, Absolute Privilege and California Civil Code Section 47(2): A Need for Consistency (1982) 14 Pacific L.J. - Kerr & Wagstaffe, LLP: "I have practiced media law for 30 years and have had the opportunity to work with Mark Goldowitz on many matters. at 501 (citing Goldman v. Belden, 754 F.2d 1059, 1065 (2d Cir.1985)). Since section 425.16 neither states nor implies an exemption for malicious prosecution claims, for us judicially to impose one as Jarrow urges “would violate the foremost rule of statutory construction. Jarrow Formulas, Inc., Adam v. Jacobs, 950 F.2d 89, 92 (2d Cir.1991) (quoting United States v. Aquavella, 615 F.2d 12, 22 (2d Cir.1979)) (internal quotation marks omitted).

In asserting that the anti-SLAPP statute, if applied, would have the effect of barring malicious prosecution claims, Jarrow “fall[s] prey … to the fallacy that the anti-SLAPP statute allows a defendant to escape the consequences of wrongful conduct….” (Navellier, supra, 29 Cal.4th at p. 93, 124 Cal.Rptr.2d 530, 52 P.3d 703.)

Subsolutions, Inc. v. Doctor's Assocs., Inc., 62 F. Supp. If on reflection the Legislature desires to create an exemption for malicious prosecution claims, it may easily do so.

[FN 10], [FN 10] “In deciding the question of potential merit, the trial court considers the pleadings and evidentiary submissions of both the plaintiff and the defendant [citation]; though the court does not weigh the credibility or comparative probative strength of competing evidence, it should grant the motion if, as a matter of law, the defendant’s evidence supporting the motion defeats the plaintiff’s attempt to establish evidentiary support for the claim.” (Wilson, supra, 28 Cal.4th at p. 821, 123 Cal.Rptr.2d 19, 50 P.3d 733, citing § 425.16, subd. As to the fourth element, the defendants argue that "Jarrow has not alleged that INC acted with malice in filing the Connecticut action." That definition, which is found in subdivision (e) of the statute, places within section 425.16’s purview “any written … statement or writing made before a … judicial proceeding,” “any written … statement or writing made in connection with an issue under consideration or review by a … judicial body,” and “any other conduct in furtherance of the exercise of the constitutional right of petition.” (§ 425.16, subd.

Accordingly, the Court of Appeal directed the trial court to grant the anti-SLAPP motion. The court concludes that the complaint states a cause of action for relief under the Lanham Act by alleging that the defendants published advertising that included false or misleading representations regarding Jarrow's right to sell its OPC products and the ownership of the '360 patent, thereby undermining Jarrow's interstate commercial activity and resulting in economic injury to Jarrow's business. Plainly, a claim that appears “arguably correct” or “tenable” when filed with the court may nevertheless fail, as LaMarche’s did, for reasons having to do with the sufficiency of the evidence actually adduced as the litigation unfolds.
