The following excerpt is from Chavez v. Dhaliwal, A157516 (Cal. App. 2020):
defendant has made a threshold showing that the challenged cause of action is one arising from protected activity." (Equilon Enterprises v. Consumer Cause, Inc. (2002) 29 Cal.4th 53, 67.) If the court finds a showing has been made under the first step, "it then determines whether the plaintiff has demonstrated a probability of prevailing on the claim." (Ibid.) We review a trial court's order granting an anti-SLAPP motion de novo.5 (Robles v. Chalilpoyil (2010) 181 Cal.App.4th 566, 573.)
