The California Supreme Court has declined to block implementation of Prop 22, the November 2020 voter-passed initiative which designates app-based drivers as independent contractors under a scheme set up by the initiative.
The challenge to the initiative was filed on January 12, 2021 with the California Supreme Court.
Filing the challenge were the SEIU (Service Employees International Union) and a handful of gig-workers. The petitioners in the case, known as Castellanos v. State of California, elected to file the case directly with the California Supreme Court rather than at a California Superior Court (i.e. trial court) level. A link to the filing, called an “Emergency Petition for Writ of Mandate and Request for Expedited Review”, can be found at the bottom of this post.
