     § 8352.  Existence of probable cause.        A person who takes part in the procurement, initiation or     continuation of civil proceedings against another has probable     cause for doing so if he reasonably believes in the existence of     the facts upon which the claim is based, and either:            (1)  reasonably believes that under those facts the claim        may be valid under the existing or developing law;            (2)  believes to this effect in reliance upon the advice        of counsel, sought in good faith and given after full        disclosure of all relevant facts within his knowledge and        information; or            (3)  believes as an attorney of record, in good faith        that his procurement, initiation or continuation of a civil        cause is not intended to merely harass or maliciously injure        the opposite party.
