In light of the decision in Murphy v. Kenneth Cole Productions, Inc., the Supreme Court has transferred Mills v. Superior Court (Bed, Bath & Beyond), Chalecki v. Superior Court (State Farm Mutual Insurance), Banda v. Richard Bagdasarian, Inc., to their respective courts of appeal for further proceedings consistent with the holding in Murphy. In National Steel & Shibuilding v. Superior Court (Godinez), review has been dismissed, and the case was remanded. The same happened to the writ petition matter in Albertson's v. Wilcox. However, Dunn v. Superior Court (Kroger Company) is still with the high court, but it is also related to the Gentry class action arbitration case on next month's calendar, so a dismissal or transfer isn't expected in that case for several months.
Pursuant to Rule 8.528(b)(3), after an order dismissing review, the Court of Appeal opinion remains unpublished unless the Supreme Court orders otherwise. There was no order republishing the Fourth District's wage-penalty hybrid opinion, so National Steel & Shipbuilding remains unciteable.
