The California Supreme Court held its (usually) weekly conference on October 28, 2009.  Notable results include:

• A Petition for Review was denied in Messenger Courier Association of the Americas, et al. v. California Unemployment Insurance Appeals Board.  See this blog's prior post on this matter here.
• A Petition for Review was denied in Ali v. U.S.A. Cab.  The interesting texture to this denial is that (1) I argued the appeal so I didn't cover this decision on this blog, and (2) aspects of Ali's construction of the Borello opinion are contrary to language in Messenger Courier, but both originate in the Fourth Appellate District, Division One.
• A Depublication Request was denied in Clark v. American Residential Services LLC, et al.  See this blog's prior post on this matter here.
