Season 8, Episode 44

Cartoon titled “The Adventures of Joe Ferret: Trying to Get Legal in California.” Joe Ferret, in a brown fedora and green jacket, stands in an underground tunnel holding up a glowing stone tablet that reads “Underground Regulations.” Text below asks: “What if the requirement used to delay ferret legalization was never legally adopted?”

What If the Rule Used to Delay Ferret Legalization Was Never Legally Adopted?

It's been a week since we received the Attorney General's motion to strike our writ of mandate. Our writ would simply require the Fish and Game Commission to actually process our duly accepted petition. Their answer was a motion to throw the whole thing out.

I've read their motion, and to me it's pretty weak. The judge already ruled in our favor, and here we go again. I'm almost done with our response to the motion to strike, and next I'll prepare a response to the demurrer. There are a lot of details. The hearing isn't until April, and I don't want any errors.

Our Underground Regulation Petition

But there is something else going on, and that's the subject of this FDFF. We filed an underground regulation petition.

Fish and Game keeps saying we need to fund a CEQA document, but they have no way to process one. They are asking for the impossible, and we claim that is not legal.
