Anti Slapp Motion Overview

Summary

Anti-SLAPP motions are designed to protect individuals or organizations from lawsuits that aim to suppress free speech, particularly in matters of public interest. In New York, these motions are supported by Civil Practice Law and Rules (CPLR) 76-a and 70-a, which expand their scope and provide for attorney fee compensation if successful. In California, similar protections are found under Civil Procedure Code 425.16 and 425.17. If a lawsuit is not related to free speech, other legal remedies may be necessary. For malicious litigation, counterclaims can be considered, potentially recovering attorney fees if proven. Inter Partes Review (IPR) is a separate process for challenging patent validity through the USPTO.
