The following excerpt is from Park v. Bd. of Trs. of the Cal. State Univ., 192 Cal.Rptr.3d 78, 239 Cal.App.4th 1258 (Cal. App. 2015):
the burden of showing that the cause of action arises from an act in furtherance of the right of free speech or petitioni.e., that it arises from a protected activity. (Zamos v. Stroud (2004) 32 Cal.4th 958, 965, 12 Cal.Rptr.3d 54, 87 P.3d 802.) Thus, the moving party must establish both (1) that its act constituted protected activity; and (2) the cause of action arose from that protected activity.
