Crowley v. Katlemangreen2 sentences2015The issue raised on review in Crowley was whether we should retain an existing rule that "a suit for malicious prosecution lies for bringing an action charging multiple grounds of liability when some but not all of those grounds were asserted with malice and without probable cause." (Crowley, supra, 8 Cal.4th at p. 671 .) In passing, we briefly addressed the defendants' unrelated argument, which they had raised but abandoned during the trial court proceedings, that denial of a defense summary adjudication motion in the underlying case established probable cause. 2015We remarked merely that the point "was without merit for the reasons stated in [Lucchesi]." (Id. at p. 675, fn. 5.) Later in the opinion we again cited Lucchesi, this time for the proposition that denial of the summary adjudication motion was not a judgment on the merits for the purposes of the rule [ 28 Cal.4th 825 ] "that an interim adverse judgment on the merits, even though subsequently set aside on motion or on appeal, conclusively establishes probable cause for the prior action."
