3405 An action for breach of contract and fraud based on the allegation that a person executing a general release during the course of litigation breached the release and did not intend to abide by it when executing it arose from statements made in connection with a matter under consideration by a judicial body and is therefore subject to the anti-SLAPP statute; the anti-SLAPP statute does not create immunity for the activities protected by it, since it requires an action to be stricken only if the plaintiff is unable to show the ability to make out a prima facie case.CitationNAVELLIER v SLETTEN (Release SLAPP) 29 C4 82 [See: CCP 425.16; Ericsson v CSI 49 CA4 1591, T/AT 11/96 ]
