Judicial Watch sued in August, arguing that spending taxpayer money
to enforce the law would violate the California Constitution. Secretary of
State Alex Padilla is asking a judge to throw out the Judicial Watch
lawsuit, saying taxpayers have not been harmed and thus have no standing to
sue. |

California’s first-in-the-nation law mandating women on boards of
publicly held companies is facing its first legal challenge. Judicial
Watch said in a lawsuit filed this week on behalf of three California
taxpayers that spending taxpayer money enforcing the law, co-written
by Sen. Hannah-Beth Jackson, is illegal under the California
constitution. |

It’s not the first challenge to the mandate signed by Gov. Jerry Brown.
Judicial Watch filed suit in August, but took a different strategy in
crafting the complaint. Rather than represent a shareholder, Judicial Watch
filed on behalf of three taxpayers objecting to the use of public funds to
enforce this new law. |
