Newsom v. Superior Court (Gallagher) (C093006)
CSAC has filed an amicus brief asking the Court of Appeal to provide clarity concerning a trial court ruling and injunction that potentially impacts a wide variety of Executive Orders that counties and other public agencies rely upon to maintain continuity of services in emergencies. The brief notes that the lack of clarity in the trial court’s order has created uncertainty about the validity of orders, many of which were requested by counties, involving not only COVID, but also wildfires and extreme heat emergencies.
