such fashion would promote judicial efficiency and economy—and not thwart any purpose of the anti-SLAPP law.” (Id. at 751.)

The facts in Oakland Bulk reflect the procedural history of the case at hand. Although MHC TT LP attempted to file its anti-SLAPP motion earlier, the motion was ultimately not filed until five days before the hearing on Defendants’ demurer and motion to strike. The Court sustained the demurrer in part, and allowed Plaintiff leave to amend the SAC. Proceeding with the anti-SLAPP motion on the SAC now would be analyzing what will soon be a superseded complaint, as in Oakland Bulk.

Even if the Court wished to proceed with the motion, doing so would prejudice Plaintiff. Although Plaintiff previously filed an opposition on the merits of the anti-SLAPP motion (likely not realizing that the initial motion had been rejected for filing by the Court Clerk), Plaintiff’s opposition was filed before the Court sustained the demurrer to the SAC. As noted above, seven causes of action survived the demurrer against MHC TT LP. The resubmitted anti-SLAPP motion, filed on May 21, 2026, is currently unopposed.

Accordingly, Plaintiff has not specifically addressed the seven remaining causes of action on their merits. Because the party opposing the anti-SLAPP motion has the burden of proof to establish a probability that they will prevail on whatever claims are asserted against the defendant under C.C.P. § 425.16(b), Plaintiff will be prejudiced if the Court proceeds with the anti-SLAPP motion on the merits of the seven remaining causes of action.

“The public has a First Amendment right of access to civil litigation documents filed in court and used at trial or submitted as a basis for adjudication. [Citation.] Substantive courtroom proceedings in ordinary civil cases, and the transcripts and records pertaining to these proceedings, are ‘ “presumptively open.” ’ [Citation.]” (Savaglio v. Wal–Mart Stores, Inc. (2007) 149 Cal.App.4th 588, 596–597, 57 Cal.Rptr.3d 215.) As NBC Subsidiary explained, “the public has an interest, in all civil cases, in observing and assessing the performance of its public judicial system, and that interest strongly supports a general right of access in ordinary civil cases.” (NBC Subsidiary, supra, 20 Cal.4th at p. 1210, 86 Cal.Rptr.2d 778, 980 P.2d 337.) “
