• Unfair Competition
  Thoits Law obtained a complete, early victory for its client MACOM against claims alleging false advertising, unfair competition, and interference with prospective economic advantage. The plaintiff sought over $250 million in damages. In response, MACOM filed a motion to strike the complaint under California’s anti-SLAPP law. After briefing was completed, the court’s tentative order granted the motion to strike the complaint but gave plaintiff leave to amend. Andrew Holland and Nathaniel Lipanovich appeared at oral argument for MACOM and convinced the court that no leave should be permitted and in its final order the court dismissed the complaint with prejudice and invited MACOM to seek its attorneys’ fees and costs.
