Although we have not yet begun to track 2012 ballot measure legislation, January has been far from uneventful for ballot measure law. The new year began with a series of important court actions sure to develop as the year proceeds. In a repeat of 2011, California is again proving itself a battle ground for initiative and referendum law. In our next edition of the update, we plan to resume tracking proposed legislation and will continue to update readers on this month's legal developments.
