The following excerpt is from People v. Anaya, 2d Civil No. B260642 (Cal. App. 2016):
plaintiffs proved these gangs are properly subject to the "focused attention from law enforcement." By prevailing, defendants furthered their individual interests, but they did not show their litigation involved a broad beneficial impact to others. (Pacific Legal Foundation v. California Coastal Com., supra, 33 Cal.3d at p. 167.)
The order denying attorney fees is affirmed. Each party shall bear their own costs on appeal.
