Description

Case summary: The Supreme Court of California issued a peremptory writ of mandate prohibiting the Governor and the Secretary of the State of California from implementing Proposition 5, an initiative that would add a section to the government code detailing tribal-state compacts for gaming and gambling in the state. The Court held all but the last sentence of Proposition 5 was invalid because it was inconsistent with the anti-casino provision of California's Constitution.
