State Employment Law Articles
Report Link GOVERNOR SIGNS CALCHAMBER-SUPPORTED BILL PROTECTING BUSINESSES FROM MERITLESS LAWSUITS.Ballard Rosenberg Golper & Savitt - November 16, 2009 A California Chamber of Commerce-supported bill that protects businesses from meritless lawsuits was signed by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger last week. Report Link California Labor And Employment Legislation Fizzles In 2009.Barker Olmsted & Barnier - November 05, 2009 The California legislature proposed a number of new labor and employment laws in 2009. However, as the politicians battled through a major budget meltdown, the bills either stalled in committee or were vetoed by the governor. Below is a summary of the more significant ones. Report Link DYSFUNCTION JUNCTION: What the State Capital Produced for California Private Sector Employers in 2009.Littler Mendelson, P.C. - October 22, 2009 As presaged by its actions at the end of 2008, the California Legislature in 2009 was justifiably preoccupied with the State's worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. Legislative energies were focused on cobbling together a budget that could get the constitutionally-required two-thirds vote, when the majority party Democrats did not have a two-thirds majority of either legislative chamber. Report Link USE OF CONTRACTORS CARRIES HIDDEN RISK.Ballard Rosenberg Golper & Savitt - October 19, 2009 If you hire a contractor to perform construction, farm labor, garment, janitorial, or security services, there is a huge financial risk you need to know about. Under a little known provision in the California Labor Code, your company could be held liable to the contractor's employees in the event the contractor skirts its labor law obligations. Report Link CALIFORNIA SUPREME COURT EMPLOYMENT LAW DECISIONS: 2008-2009 TERM.Shaw Valenza LLP - August 04, 2009 Every year, the California Supreme Court decides cases that affect the workplace. Here are some of the most important employment law opinions since our last update in July 2008. Report Link PUBLIC ENTITIES ARE EXEMPT FROM CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF CALIFORNIA’S LABOR CODE.Shaw Valenza LLP - June 19, 2009 An on-going debate regarding whether certain provisions of California’s Labor Code apply to public entities may be a bit closer to resolution. The Labor Code clearly applies to private employers. In some areas, however, it is silent as to its application to public employers. Fortunately, the California Court of Appeal recently shed some light on this issue. In Johnson v. Arvin-Edison Water Storage District, the Court held that California’s Labor Code provisions governing daily overtime, meal periods, and payment of wages upon separation of employment do not apply to water storage districts. Report Link California’s Discrimination Claim Rate Outpaces National Average.Barker Olmsted & Barnier - June 05, 2009 California's Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH) published an annual report in May, and the statistics reveal a much higher rate of some types of employee discrimination claims than is seen on the national level. Report Link Taking Stimulus Money Requires Following Rules (pdf).Ballard Rosenberg Golper & Savitt - May 28, 2009 The American Recovery and Reinvestment
Act of 2009 (ARRA) is infusing billions of dollars
into the private sector. To ensure that the
monies are actually used for their intended purpose,
Congress added a powerful whistleblower
provision into the law. Report Link California Employment Law Legislative Update.Barker Olmsted & Barnier - May 05, 2009 Change is constant when it comes to California labor and employment law. Employers should keep an eye on the following legislation currently pending in Sacramento in the areas of alternative workweek schedules, mandatory paid sick leave, “California Ledbetter” and more. Report Link INVESTIGATIONS OF GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES RULED CONSTITUTIONAL.Shaw Valenza LLP - April 14, 2009 Like all employers, public-sector employers (such as government agencies) conduct internal investigations concerning a variety of issues. Some investigations are occasioned by claims of unfair treatment. Others result from possible unlawful activity in the workplace. Report Link CHINDARAH V. PICK UP STIX, INC.: A BONA FIDE VICTORY FOR EMPLOYERS.Shaw Valenza LLP - March 26, 2009 California law prohibits employees from waiving or releasing their rights to minimum wages, overtime, and other minimum protections. For example, Labor Code section 1194 prohibits agreements by employees to work for less than minimum wage or without receiving overtime. Section 206.5 prohibits releases of wages concededly due. Section 2804 prohibits an employee from waiving the right to indemnification under Labor Code section 2802 for expenses incurred in the scope of employment. Section 5001 bars the release of an employee’s claim for workers’ compensation benefits unless approved by the Workers’ Compensation Appeals Board. Report Link Changes in California Employment Law for 2009.Baker Hostetler LLP - January 08, 2009 Now that the new year has begun, please keep in mind the following changes to California employment laws. Report Link New California Laws In Effect For 2009.Barker Olmsted & Barnier - January 07, 2009 Effective July 1, 2008, Senate Bill 1613 provides that it is illegal to drive a motor vehicle while using a wireless telephone, unless a hands-free device for the cell phone is used. A violation of this law will be punishable by a fine of $20 for a first offense and $50 for each subsequent offense. Report Link 2008 California Supreme Court Labor and Employment Law Cases.Barker Olmsted & Barnier - January 07, 2009 A review of significant 2008 California Supreme Court decisions that will affect the way you interact with your employers. The Court addressed major issues related to discrimination, medical leave, noncompetition agreements, and more. Report Link California Appeals Ct: Police Misconduct Investigative Hearings Closed to Public for Confidentiality.Jackson Lewis LLP - December 26, 2008 A California Court of Appeal has held that a police review board’s public hearings violated the state’s penal code provision requiring confidentiality of citizen complaints against peace officers. Berkeley Police Ass’n v. City of Berkeley, 167 Cal.App.4th 385 (2008). In ruling that California Penal Code § 832.7 bars public hearings on citizen complaints against officers, the court explained that public hearings “necessarily violate 832.7 … by disclosing information ‘obtained from’ confidential records, including the identity of officers who are subject to complaints and the content of investigative files and memoranda ....” Report Link Dark Skies and Lame Ducks: How Private Sector Employers Fared in Sacramento and Washington in 2008.Littler Mendelson, P.C. - December 22, 2008 In the last quarter of 2008, both Congress and the California State Legislature concentrated their attention on the rapidly deteriorating National and California economies. Report Link Prepare for the New Year, California Employers!Jackson Lewis LLP - December 12, 2008 While California employers face fewer new laws overall in 2009 than the state legislature hoped for, employers should take note of the following that become effective on January 1... Report Link GOLDEN STATE OF MIND.Shaw Valenza LLP - December 02, 2008 Employers based in other states may send their workers to California on sales or service calls, for long-term consulting assignments or for brief meetings. Employers regularly employing workers in California learn - sometimes the hard way - about the many unique employment laws and regulations they must follow, particularly in the "wage and hour" arena. But then there are businesses whose workers enter California only sporadically or for short periods of time. Can it be that an employee who lives and works in Arizona is covered by Arizona law on Monday and California law on Tuesday just because she takes a business trip? Hint: If the answer were "no," this article would be much less interesting. Report Link RECENT DEVELOPMENTS REGARDING INTERNAL EEO COMPLAINT PROCEDURES.Shaw Valenza LLP - November 24, 2008 Lawsuits claiming harassment, discrimination or retaliation are expensive to defend. In an effort to resolve equal employment opportunity (EEO) issues before they become legal liabilities, most employers have developed and implemented procedures for dealing with internal EEO complaints. These internal procedures often involve a multi-step process used to evaluate whether the conduct at issue violates the organization’s policy and identify solutions to prevent inappropriate conduct from continuing. Report Link EDD Offers Alternative To Layoffs For California Employers.Barker Olmsted & Barnier - November 04, 2008 Some companies are facing tough choices during the current economic downturn. Layoffs may allow the company to survive. But when the economy rebounds, those laid off workers may not be available for rehire. Hiring and training a new workforce is time consuming and expensive. Report Link NEW LAWS AND OTHER DEVELOPMENTS FOR CALIFORNIA EMPLOYERS.Shaw Valenza LLP - October 23, 2008 Once again, Governor Schwarzenegger vetoed a majority of the workplace-related bills passed by the Legislature. Only a handful of new laws will directly affect employers. We summarize those laws, various bills that may reappear in the next legislative session, and a few additional developments below. Report Link California: No Texting While Driving (pdf).Jackson Lewis LLP - October 20, 2008 California drivers will be banned from reading,
writing or sending a text message while driving
in a vehicle beginning January 1, 2009. As he
signed the bill (S.B. 28) into law on September 24,
2008, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger said,
"Banning electronic text messaging while driving
will keep drivers' hands on the wheel and their eyes
on the road, making our roadways a safer place for
all Californians." California joins a handful of states,
including New Jersey and Washington, that bans
text-messaging while driving. Report Link Workplace Policies Update: California Bans “Texting” Behind the Wheel; California Employers Should Update Personnel Policies.Barker Olmsted & Barnier - October 06, 2008 California has banned text messaging while driving, and employers need to respond promptly by updating policies. Report Link California Law Bans Health Insurers from Providing Incentives for Rescinding Insurance.Jackson Lewis LLP - August 08, 2008 A new California law explicitly bans health insurance companies from rewarding their employees for rescinding an individual policyholder's health insurance. The new law (AB 1150) resolves an argument about the scope of a longstanding law (Knox-Keene Health Care Service Plan Act of 1975) that prohibits health insurance companies from basing claims reviewers' compensation on reducing or denying claims (some argued that incentives for rescission could be offered under the existing law as long as the employee deciding the rescission was not a “claims reviewer”). Report Link CALIFORNIA SUPREME COURT EMPLOYMENT LAW DECISIONS 2007-2008.Shaw Valenza LLP - July 31, 2008 The California Supreme Court decided several significant employment law cases since our last summary in September 2007. The Court’s opinions address a number of topics, including expense reimbursement, employee privacy, government employee due process rights, leaves of absence, drug testing, and retaliation. The Court also accepted review of several decisions that will affect employment law in the months to come. We summarize below the recently decided and pending cases. Report Link New Director Aims To Reinvigorate Department of Fair Employment and Housing.Barker Olmsted & Barnier - July 11, 2008 California’s civil rights agency, the Department of Fair Employment and Housing has announced an ambitious three year plan to step up enforcement of the state’s antidiscrimination laws. Report Link The West Coast Employer (pdf).Jackson Lewis LLP - July 01, 2008 Complying with Health Privacy Laws; Are Layoffs on the Horizon?; AB 1825 Training:
Consequences of Failing to Comply; Summer Heat; COURT WATCH; Report Link The Differences Between State and Federal Anti-Discrimination Laws.Shaw Valenza LLP - June 18, 2008 President Bush recently signed into law the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (“GINA”). The new law, when it takes effect at the end of 2009, makes it unlawful for employers to discriminate against employees based on genetic characteristics. Yet, California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act (“FEHA”) already prohibits discrimination on the basis of genetic information. In fact, the FEHA has traditionally provided broader protections against discrimination than federal law. This creates confusion for employers who do not understand the many distinctions between the federal and state statutes. While this article does not address all of those distinctions, below are some of the key differences. Report Link California Court of Appeal Interprets "Kin Care" Provisions for the First Time.Littler Mendelson, P.C. - June 05, 2008 In McCarther v. Pacific Telesis Group, No. A115223 (May 23, 2008), a case of first impression, a California Court of Appeal held that California's kin care statute – Labor Code section 233 – applies where an employer provides employees with an indefinite number of paid sick days on an as-needed basis. In essence, the court held that whenever an employer provides paid sick leave, it must comply with kin care obligations – no matter how it structures and calculates the sick leave entitlement. Report Link A Kin Care Conundrum.Shaw Valenza LLP - June 03, 2008 Many employers provide some form of paid sick leave to their employees. In fact, employers are required to do so for employees working in San Francisco. Don’t be jealous. The Legislature is considering a bill that would mandate paid sick leave statewide. See Assembly Bill 2716. Report Link Enforcement Update: California DLSE Continues Industry Sweeps, Several Hundred Thousand Dollars In Fines Assessed.Barker Olmsted & Barnier - May 02, 2008 The California Division of Labor Standards Enforcement (“DLSE”) and other government agencies have continued the practice of targeting specific industries with surprise audit sweeps. Recently it has raided local restaurants and auto body shops, but other industries are on its hit list. Report Link Two New California Employment Laws Now In Effect.Fisher & Phillips, LLP - January 16, 2008 January 1, 2008, is the effective date of the Earned Income Tax Credit Information Act (the Act). This legislation evolved from a California Franchise Tax Board study showing that approximately 460,000 California families qualified, but did not file, for the federal earned income tax credit (EITC.) The EITC Act requires employers on an annual basis to notify their employees of their potential eligibility for the EITC. Report Link California: Looking Back at 2007 and Ahead to 2008.Jackson Lewis LLP - January 02, 2008 Employee Social Security Numbers; Minimum Wage; California Computer Professionals; Mandatory Unpaid Leave for Military Spouses; Employee Expense Reimbursement; Supervisors and Retaliatory Discharge; Challenge to California's Union "Neutrality" Legislation. Report Link New Laws for California Employers in 2008.Shaw Valenza LLP - December 10, 2007 With the New Year comes new legislation. This year, the Legislature presented Governor Schwarzenegger with a number of workplace-related bills. The Governor chose to veto a significant number of bills that would have significantly impacted employers, and signed a few with which employers will need to comply come January. In addition to the legislation the Governor signed this year, a few laws from past years become effective in 2008. The key laws are summarized below. Report Link Judge Strikes Down Controversial Supermarket Ordinance.Fisher & Phillips, LLP - December 07, 2007 A Los Angeles County Superior Court judge issued a tentative ruling last month, voiding a Los Angeles city ordinance that required supermarkets, occupying more than 15,000 square feet and which changed ownership, to retain existing eligible workers for 90 days after the transfer of ownership. Report Link The Breach of the Duty of Loyalty - What Employers Can Do About It.Shaw Valenza LLP - November 12, 2007 A recent report called The Walker Loyalty Report for Loyalty in the Workplace, released in September 2007, noted more than 35% of employees are likely to leave an employer within the first two years of employment. Yet, employers’ investments in training, recruiting, and compensation continue to rise. Turnover is even more damaging when employees take clients, employees and trade secrets with them. Do employers have the legal right to expect their employees’ loyalty? And what can an employer do to protect itself from competitive conduct by employees during employment? Report Link Playing Defense: How Private-Sector Employers Fared in the 2007 California Legislative Session.Littler Mendelson, P.C. - October 23, 2007 It's been said that, on some days, it's just a real effort to get up and gnaw through the straps. California's private-sector employers might have felt that way when the Democratically controlled state Legislature adjourned in mid-September, sending the annual flood of legislation passed at the last minute to the Republican Governor's office for review, and either approval or veto. Report Link California Governor Helps Employers By Vetoing Several Pending Bills.Ford & Harrison LLP - October 17, 2007 California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger had until Midnight, October 14, 2007 to act upon all of the legislation that had been pending on his desk. That deadline has now passed, and Governor Schwarzenegger used this time, at least in part, to convey his support for employers within California. Report Link California Supreme Court Issues Two Big Decisions.Fisher & Phillips, LLP - September 25, 2007 The California Supreme Court ended the summer with a bang by announcing two major decisions which could have far-reaching effects. Here is a brief overview of the implications of each case to California employers. Report Link California Court Temporarily Halts Enforcement of No Match Regulation.Ford & Harrison LLP - September 18, 2007 In a lawsuit filed by the AFL-CIO and immigration rights groups, a California federal trial judge has issued a temporary restraining order prohibiting the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) from mailing no match letter packets or taking any other action to implement its August 15, 2007 regulation entitled “Safe Harbor Procedures for Employers who Receive a No-Match Letter.” See AFL-CIO v. Chertoff (N.D. Ca. Aug. 31, 2007). Report Link California Supreme Court Employment Law Decisions 2006-2007.Shaw Valenza LLP - September 10, 2007 The California Supreme Court decided several significant employment law cases since our last summary in August 2006. The Court’s opinions address a number of topics, from employment at will to class actions. The Court also has accepted review of several decisions that could be blockbusters in the months to come. We summarize below the recently decided cases and those that remain pending. Report Link California Alert - CA Supreme Court Issues Three Key Decisions.Ogletree Deakins - September 05, 2007 California employers should be aware of three decisions in the last week that will impact the way they do business here. Report Link Employment Lawsuits Against Individuals.Shaw Valenza LLP - August 02, 2007 Plaintiffs in employment law cases frequently name individual employees as defendants. Sometimes, they sue co-workers. More frequently, they name supervisors or managers, and even high-level executives up to the CEO. Report Link California Employment Law Protects Employees Unauthorized to Work.Shaw Valenza LLP - May 29, 2007 As anyone paying attention to the news is aware, immigration is a politically charged and volatile issue. Employers as a result must sort through a morass of laws and regulations. There are specific laws and procedures applicable to the employment of non-citizens. It is illegal to employ and retain aliens who are unauthorized to work. Report Link Public School Newsletter - May 2007Littler Mendelson, P.C. - May 08, 2007 Topics covered in this issue include the following: A school district's notice of disciplinary action to employees on summer break did not give the employee the opportunity to timely request a hearing; Teachers who serve under provisional permits are considered "probationary" employees and are entitled to layoff notice and a right to a hearing; A California Court of Appeal has held that the Sacramento City Unified School District must personally deliver a notice of non-reelection rather than mail the notice; A teacher and school district were not liable for the battery of severely autistic students. One new Public Employment Relations Board decision is discussed, as well as legislative issues regarding weapon control on school grounds and school safety. And in the news, a transgender student has been allowed to run for prom king and female softball players in Chula Visa, California have brought suit against their school alleging that they have worse facilities than the male teams. Report Link California Management Update (pdf).Ford & Harrison LLP - March 02, 2007 Highlights: New Employment Laws for 2007 and Beyond; Finally Some Clarity - California Department of Fair Employment and Housing Approves Sexual Harassment Training Regulations; Companies Must "Shine the Light" on their Security Breaches; Prior Periods of Employment Must be Considered When Determining an Employee's Eligibility for FMLA Leave; California Supreme Court To Review Whether Noncompetition Agreements Are Invalid Even If Narrowly Tailored; Employers May Recover Commissions Advanced To Employees But Never Earned. Report Link Data Breach Class Action Filed for Negligence Related to Stolen Laptop.Jackson Lewis LLP - December 15, 2006 The emergence of a number of state laws aimed at protecting sensitive personal information and curbing the explosion of identity theft is beginning to have a foreseeable effect on workplace litigation. Such statutes are leading to negligence lawsuits filed by employees against their employers for failing to take appropriate measures to protect the computer databases, company laptops, and other repositories of confidential and personal information. These negligence claims have the potential to create significant exposure for employers, especially those that have not taken tangible steps to safeguard sensitive information. Report Link MAKING NICE: The Results of the 2006 California Legislative Session For Californi's Employers.Littler Mendelson, P.C. - November 03, 2006 Impending elections can have differing impacts where a state legislature is controlled by one party, and the governor is of the other party. Sometimes, an onrushing election creates a policy gridlock, with neither the legislature nor the governor willing to compromise, or make the other side "look good." In other circumstances, pressure from the upcoming "performance evaluation" by the voters spurs the governor and the legislature to act constructively. Report Link Court Clarifies Circumstances Under Which Employee "Bounty Hunters" May Collect Penalties for Employer's Violation of Labor Code Provisions.Littler Mendelson, P.C. - December 08, 2005 In the first significant case interpreting the notice and exhaustion requirements of the state's Private Attorneys General Act (PAGA), a California Court of Appeal has dismissed class action claims seeking civil penalties for violations of various statutory recordkeeping requirements and minimum wage and overtime payment obligations. Although the plaintiffs' complaint made no mention of the PAGA and did not purport to bring a claim under that Act, the court in Caliber Bodyworks v. Superior Court , No. B184120 (Cal. Ct. of Appeal, 2nd Dist. Nov. 23, 2005), dismissed the plaintiffs' claims for penalties relating to Caliber's alleged failure to properly maintain employee records, issue payment on regular paydays and provide appropriate meal periods, holding that those claims seeking only civil penalties could not be collected via a private right of action. In so doing, the court provided some needed guidance on the scope of the PAGA. Report Link New California Employment Laws for 2006.Jackson Lewis LLP - November 04, 2005 Unlike years past, there are relatively few new employment laws for California employers to digest before January 1. Although numerous bills were proposed during the last legislative session, many of them died in the Legislature. Numerous others were met with a veto by the Governor. However, several employment-related bills survived, and this article summarizes the most significant among them. Report Link Mostly Quiet on the Sacramento Front: The Results of the California Legislature's 2005 Session.Littler Mendelson, P.C. - October 13, 2005 The 2005 session of the Democratically-controlled California legislature ended in early September. Republican Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, in his second full year in office, signed and vetoed the Legislature’s products through the first week in October. The resulting new laws affecting California private employers were largely anticlimactic, compared to the legislative production earlier this decade when a single party controlled both the Legislature and the Governor’s office. Report Link For The California Supreme Court, Predispute Contractual Waiver of Right to Jury Trial Are Not Enforceable in Civil Actions Under California Law.Littler Mendelson, P.C. - August 15, 2005 Among the greatest fears of many employers is the chance that a runaway jury could impose a potentially ruinous verdict in a wrongful discharge or harassment matter. Every month the headlines are filled with multi-million dollar jury verdicts. As a consequence, many employers have sought to avoid the great uncertainty which comes with jury trial, while both avoiding the cost of arbitration and retaining the right to appeal which comes from litigating matters in court. They have sought to accomplish these multifaceted goals through the use of pre-dispute jury waivers. Report Link Pre-Dispute Jury Trial Waivers Are Unenforceable.Jackson Lewis LLP - August 09, 2005 The California Supreme Court has ruled that a contractual agreement to waive the right to a jury trial, entered into prior to any dispute between the contracting parties, is unenforceable under the California Constitution and Section 631 of the California Code of Civil Procedure (the Code). [Grafton Partners L.P. v. Superior Court, Cal. Sup. Ct. No. S123344 (August 4, 2005)]. While the Code prescribes six means by which parties to a civil suit may waive their jury trial right, a pre-dispute agreement is not one of the authorized methods. This ruling expressly disapproves the decision in Trizec Properties, Inc. v. Superior Court, 229 Cal.App.3d 1616 (1991), where a California Court of Appeal enforced such a pre-dispute waiver. Report Link Jackson Lewis Files Brief in Support of Supreme Court Review of Berkeley Living Wage Ordinance.Jackson Lewis LLP - January 04, 2005 On December 1, 2004, Jackson Lewis filed in the United States Supreme Court an amicus curiae ("friend of the court") brief on behalf of a coalition of business groups. Report Link Schwarzenegger Attempts to Halt Scheduled Decrease in Nurse - Patient Ratios.Jackson Lewis LLP - December 10, 2004 California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has sought to delay the scheduled reduction of mandatory nurse-to-patient ratios for combined medical/surgical hospital units. Report Link Back To The Center? The Governator Puts His Stamp -- and the Brakes -- on California's Employment Legislation in 2004.Littler Mendelson, P.C. - October 11, 2004 With the recall of Democratic Governor Gray Davis, and the installation of Arnold Schwarzenegger as his successor late last year, employers expected a change in approach to Sacramento’s ever-increasing legislation of the workplace in the Golden State. The employers' expectations have been met – and how! Report Link Employment-Related Supreme Court Decisions: The Year in Review and What's Ahead.Jackson Lewis LLP - October 08, 2004 The United States Supreme Court and the California Supreme Court have been busy over the past year, deciding a variety of legal issues that will impact California employers. Several pending cases also will affect the workplace. While not an exhaustive list, the following is a very brief summary of some of the most significant developments in employment law. Report Link California Legislature Dramatically Revises Onerous "Bounty Hunter" Law.Jackson Lewis LLP - August 12, 2004 Governor Schwarzenegger has signed legislation blunting the effects of the controversial "bounty hunter law." Report Link California's New Employment Laws: Part Two.Jackson Lewis LLP - November 18, 2003 This article is the second in a two-part series summarizing the most significant new employment-related laws affecting California employers.
Report Link California's New Employment Laws: Part One.Jackson Lewis LLP - November 05, 2003 During the past year, the California Legislature and the governor have been busy making new laws that affect employers. This article is the first of a two-part series summarizing the most significant new employment-related laws, the majority of which become effective on January 1, 2004. Report Link United States and California Supreme Courts to Take Up Employment Cases.Jackson Lewis LLP - October 09, 2003 In the upcoming months, the United States and the California Supreme Courts will decide a variety of legal issues, many of which will substantially affect California employers. Report Link Slate of New Employment Legislation Will Reinvent Workplace Law for California Employers.Jackson Lewis LLP - October 01, 2002 Listing of the key measures signed by Governor Davis as of September 30, 2002. Where available, the official statement from the Governor's Office and an Internet link to the bill itself are included.
