CONSTITUTIONAL LAW, DISPUTE RESOLUTION & ARBITRATION, GOVERNMENT LAW, LABOR & EMPLOYMENT LAW

COUNTY OF RIVERSIDE v. SUPERIOR COURT OF RIVERSIDE COUNTY (RIVERSIDE
SHERIFF'S ASS'N), No. S107126 (Cal. April 21, 2003)
Senate Bill No. 402, requiring counties to submit to arbitration of
economic issues arising during negotiation with firefighter or law
enforcement unions, violates the California Constitution as it
deprives a county of authority to provide for compensation of its
employees, and delegates to a private body the power to interfere
with county financial affairs and to perform a municipal function.
