Ninth Circuit certifies two questions to California Supreme Court in past 7 days

Within the past seven days, the Ninth Circuit has issued two orders asking the California Supreme Court to rule on controlling legal questions pursuant to California Rule of Court 8.548:

  • Murray v. Alaska Airlines, Inc., ___ F.3d ___ (9th Cir. Apr. 10, 2008) (asking Supreme Court to decide administrative law question)

  • Munson v. Del Taco, Inc., ___ F.3d ___, 2008 WL 1700525 (9th Cir. Apr. 14, 2008) (asking Supreme Court to decide question relating to interpretation of Unruh Civil Rights Act, Civ. Code § 51)

Such orders are relatively rare, so it is rather unusual to see two issued within five days of each other. There is no overlap on the panels.
