Description
The issue we consider in this appeal is whether, in the context of a malicious prosecution action, Code of Civil Procedure section 437c, subdivision (f)(1) permits summary adjudication on the ground that some but not all claims in a single underlying action were supported by probable cause. Because such a determination does not completely dispose of the entire malicious prosecution cause of action, we conclude that this statute does not permit summary adjudication under these circumstances. Therefore, in this case, the trial courts grant of summary adjudication on this ground (as well as its subsequent piecemeal grant of summary judgment as to the other claim in the underlying action) was improper and we reverse.
