It's July 3.

In early February, we sued four Bay Area cities for breaking California’s housing law. They all missed a deadline to update their housing plans. Every city admitted, in court, that it missed this deadline.

We have not won any of these cases (yet). Here’s Cupertino, arguing why we can’t win such a case:

The law says we get a hearing within 120 days of requesting one, but the superior court will not decide the case until Cupertino prepares an administrative record. We objected that no record is needed; the city admitted the only important fact.

We have no further comment (yet).
