Administrative Presiding Justice Jim Humes, Associate Justice Sandra Margulies, and Associate Justice Kathleen Banke of the California Court of Appeal, First Appellate District, Division One, issued an Order today DENYING Petitioner Mustafa Board’s Writ of Mandate. (Case No. A159771).

The Appellate Court held that Petitioner lacked standing to bring the Writ, thereby effectively confirming Alameda County Superior Court Judge Evelio Grillo’s January 27, 2020 Order recognizing the Board of Directors and Members of ISEB.

This effectively concludes, in our client’s favor, seven years of litigation (and six separate lawsuits filed against our clients).

Congratulations to the Chairman of the Board of Directors and President Jamal Qureshi on a job well done. Your strategic thinking and leadership proved invaluable during this process.

Special thanks to Attorneys Carl Sundholm on the appellate briefs and V. Torch Sathienmars during the underlying trial.

After being turned down by 10 separate firms, our client retained us to set aside a $500K default that was entered against him in March 2019. Plaintiff’s counsel refused to set aside the default, prompting us to file a Motion to Set Aside. Initially, the Court’s Tentative Order ruled against our client.

However, on Monday after oral argument, the Court reversed its Tentative and GRANTED our Motion. Congratulations to our team for a job well done!

Rule: DO NOT WAIT. If you have a Default entered against you, EVERY DAY is critical. Seek counsel IMMEDIATELY!!!
