    Filed 5/28/20 CERTIFIED FOR PUBLICATION IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA FOURTH APPELLATE DISTRICT DIVISION THREE DAVID HESTER, Plaintiff and Appellant, G057335 v. (Super. Ct. No. 30-2017-00936828) PUBLIC STORAGE, O P I N I O N Defendant and Respondent. Appeal from a judgment of the Superior Court of Orange County, Melissa R. McCormick, Judge. Affirmed. Law Offices of Dale Washington and Dale E. Washington for Plaintiff and Appellant. Keker, Van Nest & Peters, Erin E. Meyer and Christopher S. Sun for Defendant and Respondent. * * * For several years, plaintiff David Hester was a reality television star on “Storage Wars.” He now finds himself at war with defendant Public Storage over the contents of a storage unit. Plaintiff made the winning bid and purchased the contents of a self-storage unit at an auction held by defendant. Defendant learned it had mistakenly sold the goods about half an hour after the sale was complete. The unit’s occupant had paid his past due rent weeks before the auction, but defendant’s computer system incorrectly marked the unit for sale. Due to this error, defendant immediately rescinded the deal based on two documents plaintiff had signed that contained clauses allowing defendant to void the sale for any reason (the null and void clauses). Plaintiff claimed defendant’s rescission was invalid and sued for breach of contract and conversion, among other claims. Defendant moved for summary adjudication on the contract and conversion claims on grounds it had properly voided the sale under the null and void clauses.
