Facts

James Muhammad sued North Richmond Senior Housing, HUD, and Sheri Gaffney, involving allegations of elder abuse.

DEFENDANTS' CONTENTIONS:
Defendants filed an unlawful detainer action against plaintiff in connection with the premises he rented from defendant North Richmond Senior Housing. The trial court entered judgment against plaintiffs and this instant lawsuit was only one of the many several attempts to challenge that judgment. Defendant moved to dismiss the lawsuit because it is frivolous.

Result

The court agreed with defendants and dismissed the action.
