Torts – defamation – privilege — frivolous actions

Quincy Neri appeals the dismissal of her complaint and judgments imposing sanctions for filing a frivolous action. Neri contends that her complaint should not have been dismissed because it stated valid claims. We conclude that Neri’s complaint failed to state any cognizable claim and had no reasonable basis in law. Accordingly, we affirm. Additionally, we grant the motion by the respondents for sanctions for a frivolous appeal. This opinion will not be published.
