9th Cir.
12-15807
The court of appeals vacated a district court order. The court held that California’s anti-SLAPP statute encompassed a suit seeking to secure equal access for the hearing-impaired by compelling CNN to caption videos posted on its website. The court held further that the plaintiff in that suit failed to establish a probability of prevailing on its Unruh Act claims. Finally, in a companion order to its opinion, the court certified to the California Supreme Court the question whether the California Disabled Persons Act applies to websites.
