United States Ninth Circuit
Marilley v. Bonham, 13-17358
In an action brought by a class of nonresident commercial fishers challenging California’s nonresident fee differential for commercial fishing licenses, vessel registration and permits, the district court’s ruling of summary judgment in favor of the plaintiffs is reversed and remanded where the fee differentials survives a Privileges and Immunities Clause challenge because the differentials are justified by a substantial reason that is closely related to the fees.
