"Court Mulls Making Prop. 64 Retroactive"

Today's Recorder reports here on yesterday's argument (subscription required):

Hearing arguments in San Francisco in two separate Prop 64 cases, the court appeared ready to declare the controversial initiative retroactive to an untold number of cases pending when it passed. The result could void several suits under the state's unfair competition law by declaring that the plaintiffs who filed them lacked standing.

I don't agree with that assessment. I think the justices gave very few clues. My own summary of the argument is here.
