News on the Kory Cert Petition Front

News on the Kory Cert Petition Front

Things are moving quickly with our petition which was docketed at the Supreme Court on February 27th. Thereafter, the AG’s office filed a waiver of their right to respond to the petition. Shortly thereafter, the petition set for conference on March 28th, which seems very quick. However, today, apparently after review of the petition, the Court requested that the AG submit an response to be filed by April 16th. Ell, they at least think there is enough merit that they…

Judge Shubb Denies the Preliminary Injunction in Kory v. Bonta, but the battle continues

Yesterday, April 23, 2024, Judge Shubb denied our motion for a preliminary injunction in Kory v. Bonta.

The judge recently dismissed both of those cases after the 9th Circuit dismissed the two other AB 2098 cases on mootness grounds, because the legislature repealed AB 2098 (Section…

No Decision yet on the McDonald AB 2098 case, but methinks the writing is on the wall

No Decision yet on the McDonald AB 2098 case, but methinks the writing is on the wall

Yesterday was the hearing/oral argument in the first challenge to Cali AB2098, the Covid misinformation bill. The case is McDonald v Lawson which is in Federal Court in the Central Disrict of California (Los Angeles). For such a big case, I thought the hearing was not very long and more tellingly, it focused on one issue only, standing, which is the suitability of the plaintiffs to bring the lawsuit.
