Partner Josephine K. Petrick is presenting at The Bar Association of San Francisco’s SCOCA (Supreme Court of California) Symposium on Monday, March 30, 2026. She will be analyzing high-impact cases including:
- Center for Biological Diversity, Inc. v. Public Utilities Com. (NEM 3.0 & Solar): ending “uniquely deferential” review and confirming that courts—not agencies—are the final arbiters of what the law means.
- People v. Superior Court (Mitchell): warning that a temporary stay remains a hard barrier until the remittitur issues; jump the gun, and trial court orders are void for lack of jurisdiction.
- Kjoller v. Superior Court (People): ordering the Court of Appeal to issue an order to show cause why the district attorney should not be sanctioned for relying on fabricated, likely AI-generated citations.
