Supreme Court agrees to decide Dynamex retroactivity for Ninth Circuit

November 20, 2019

The Supreme Court today agreed to answer the Ninth Circuit’s question in Vazquez v. Jan-Pro Franchising International, Inc.  The federal court wants to know, “Does the Court’s decision in Dynamex Operations West Inc. v. Superior Court, 416 P.3d 1 (Cal. 2018), apply retroactively?”  (Link added.)  [Disclosure:  Horvitz & Levy filed amicus curiae briefs (here, here, and here) in Dynamex.]
