This is great news for California. The new ESI rules will eliminate much of the uncertainty the existed before the new electronic discovery rules were enacted into law. Thanks for the update, Skates.

"The Secretary of State assigns an Assembly or Senate bill (bill) a number known as the chapter number; when the Governor approves, signs, dates, and deposits the bill with the Secretary of State. This copy is the official record and law of the State."

Here's the official roll. So, AB 5 is now officially known as "Chapter 5, Statutes of 2009".

We will be able to see good improvement.
