California Court of Appeal

The PUC's decision enforcing Labor Code section 6906(b)is annulled where, article III, section 3.5 of the California Constitution does not prevent the PUC from refusing to enforce this statute, and where PUC had authority to refuse to enforce section 6906(b) because it was repealed by implication by the state Anti-Featherbedding Law.
