California Board Diversity Fight Grinds On

As this Cooley blog notes, the fight continues over the two California laws mandating board diversity. Earlier this year, two Los Angeles Superior Courts struck down those laws as unconstitutional and enjoined their implementation and enforcement; however, those injunctions were temporarily lifted as the state appealed the decisions. Last week, the California appeals court that is considering this matter vacated the temporary stays, putting back in place the injunctions against implementation and enforcement of the two diversity statutes. We can certainly expect some further twists and turns as the appeals court considers the issues on appeal.
