Amendments to section 70217 were adopted on an emergency basis and became operative 11-12-2004. The emergency amendments were subsequently readopted twice, effective 3-15-2005 and 7-14-2005. These amendments were enjoined from implementation and enforcement by the Superior Court for Sacramento County in the case of California Nurses Association v. Schwarzenegger et al., Case No. 04CS01725. As a result of the injunction, the version of the regulation adopted on 9-26-2003 and operative 1-1-2004 remained in effect. California Nurses Association v. Schwarzenegger et al., has been resolved; no certificate of compliance was submitted for the emergency action and the emergency amendments were repealed by operation of law.
