- In re City of San Bernardino – District Court reverses order of the Bankruptcy Court, finding that state agencies are indeed immune from suit brought by a bankrupt municipality seeking to enjoin the withholding of disputed tax revenues by the state agencies; interesting read for municipal bankruptcy practitioners.
- And finally, Council on Police Training v. State brings us the tale of Officer McGee, who was suspended for intentionally scheduling a colonoscopy on a date when he was required to be on standby to testify in court on the “mathematical bet” that the matter in which he was summoned to testify would be resolved without a trial, with the intent to take the pay that came with being on standby when he was in fact not available to testify. It feels like maybe there’s some kind of joke to be had here regarding the nature of the officer’s medical procedure, the punishment to which he was subjected, etc., but it’s not coming to me. If only there were some fish. And maybe a barrel.
