Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Edward W. Suman, San Bruno, for Appellant.

Dana Dean, Benicia, for Respondent.


PARRILLI, Acting P.J.

This is an appeal from an order granting a motion by Jess and Rose Pelayo (Pelayos) to disqualify the attorney jointly representing their opponents, Joe Dino dba Trust Realty Services (Dino) and Arthur and Isabel Eslava (Eslavas). As we explain below, we conclude the Pelayos lacked a valid basis for prevailing on their motion to disqualify Dino's attorney. We therefore reverse.
