SLAPP Acronym for “Strategic Lawsuits Against Public Participation.
(Dickens v. Provident Life)

SLAPP is an acronym for “strategic lawsuits against public participation.”  (Wilcox v. Superior Court (1994) 27 Cal.App.4th 809, 813.)  An anti-SLAPP motion, codified in Code of Civil Procedure section 425.16, provides a procedural remedy to gain an early dismissal of a lawsuit or cause of action that qualifies as a SLAPP.  (All subsequent undesignated statutory references are to the Code of Civil Procedure unless stated otherwise.)
