Turnabout on Remand

Crossroads Investors, L.P.  v. Fed. Nat’l Mortgage Assoc., No. C072585A (D3 Jul. 27, 2017)

This is an odd one. The Court of Appeal issued an opinion affirming the denial of an anti-SLAPP motion. The Supreme Court issued a grant-and-transfer, ordering reconsideration based on an intervening decision. And now, the the Court of Appeal reverses whole hog, in a ruling that is inconsistent with is prior decision in ways untouched by the intervening Supreme Court case.
