As to Defendant Next Champ LLC, Plaintiff RSF Social Investment Fund, Inc.'s application for right to attach order is GRANTED.

"Before an attachment order is issued, the court must find all of the following: (1) the claim upon which the attachment is based is one upon which an attachment may be issued; (2) the applicant has established 'the probable validity' of the claim upon which the attachment is based; (3) the attachment is not sought for a purpose other than the recovery on the claim upon which the request for attachment is based; and (4) the amount to be secured by the attachment is greater than zero. (Sec. 484.090.) In order to establish the probable validity of its claim, the applicant must show that it is more likely than not it will obtain a judgment against the defendant (or counterdefendant) on its claim. (Sec. 481.190.)" (Lydig Constr., Inc. v. Martinez Steel Corp. (2015) 234 Cal.App.4th 937, 944.)
