Tentative ruling against pension lawsuit

EDIT: This post has been updated to reflect that Mayor Reed's attorneys argued the case at a hearing on Friday.

It appears the saga of San Jose Mayor Chuck Reed's pension attack is drawing to a close.

Reed et al fired off a hasty lawsuit in February against Attorney General Kamala Harris, claiming her summary of their constitution-altering ballot initiative was "false" and "misleading" and calling on the Sacramento County Superior Court to force Harris to alter the wording.

A tentative ruling from the Sacramento County Superior Court released on Thursday, March 13th, appears to have ended the argument by denying Reed's petition to force Harris to change her summary.
