In Buchheim v. Anaya (Cal.App.2d, Aug. 25, 2026, No. B339494) 2026 WL 2490938 (“Buchheim”), a California Court of Appeal recently analyzed a dispute concerning a series of financial transactions between a lender and borrower who had been working together over many years to buy and flip residential real estate. In Buchheim, the Court of Appeal held that in financial matters, unexplained statements of fervent belief lose to an objective record of fact, even on summary judgment.
