my partner doesn’t use pet names nearly as much as i do, which is very funny because i will crack my gay little knuckles and say some shit like “good morning my sun and moon, my loveliest boy, my baby my sweetheart my darling dearest” and he will reply “hello adrian”

Ninth Circuit says California Supreme Court, not SCOTUS, gets last word on state labor law

The Ninth Circuit ruled that California's Supreme Court has the right to correct the U.S. Supreme Court on the interpretation of a controver

In a victory for workers in California, a federal appeals court ruled Monday that employees can use a unique state law, known as PAGA, to join and sue their employers for violations of labor laws, despite a U.S. Supreme Court ruling limiting access to that law. The Private Attorneys General Act, enacted in 2004, allows employees to sue their employers in the name of the state for violating laws such as those regulating minimum wages, overtime, meal and rest breaks and sick pay. If their suit succeeds, the employees collect 25% of the penalties provided by the labor law, with the rest going to the state. PAGA suits have bolstered labor laws in a state that lacks the resources to fully enforce the laws on its own. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in June 2022 that PAGA violated the rights of employers whose contracts required workers to take disputes to individual arbitration rather than going to court, a common practice for large companies. Arbitrators’ decisions are virtually unappealable, and studies have found that they usually favor employers, their frequent customers. But the California Supreme  Court, the final authority on the meaning of state law, breathed new life into PAGA in July. In a unanimous ruling, the court said that while employees were bound by their agreements to arbitrate individual claims, they could still join their coworkers and sue collectively in the name of the state.
