The California Supreme Court handed down a stay of the Alameda County court’s order blocking the furloughs.  Here’s the text of the order<\/a>:<\/p>\n

The petition for review is GRANTED. Because the issue whether the Governor has the authority to direct the unpaid furlough of state employees is pending before this court and is scheduled for oral argument on Wednesday, September 8, 2010, in the related case of Professional Engineers in California Government et al. v. Arnold Schwarzenegger et. al., S183411, and without expressing any view on the merits of that issue, we conclude that it is appropriate to grant review in this matter and defer further action pending our resolution of the currently pending proceeding. Pending further order of this court, further proceedings in the Alameda County Superior Court in case number RG10494800 (and in consolidated cases numbered RG10507922, RG10507081, RGI0503805, RGI0501997, RGI0516259, RGI0514694, and RG10528855), as well as the temporary restraining order of the Alameda County Superior Court issued on August 9, 2010, are stayed. Votes: George, C.J., Kennard, Baxter, Chin, Moreno, and Corrigan, JJ.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

What this means for the time being is that the upcoming furloughs, as defined by the Governor will go ahead until further notice.  The Supreme Court will directly review the decision (bypassing the court of appeal) and render a decision, which you would assume would come in a fairly speedy manner.  <\/p>\n

Stay tuned for more on this, but this is a big win for Arnold’s furloughs and will probably control through much of the budget fightin’ season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
