Eddie Money + Employment Litigation = SLAPP?

Symmonds v. Mahoney, No. B283529 (D2d1 Feb. 1, 2019)

Eddie Money fired his Drummer, who has cancer and a bad back. Drummer sued under FEHA, alleging disability and age discrimination. Eddie filed an anti-SLAPP motion, alleging that the claims arose from his First Amendment Protected write to make his music without being hassled by the man. Which the trial court, quite sensibly, denied.

But the Court of Appeal reverses.
