"I can understand that people who are involved in low-level offenses, I don't believe that is a serious impact on jury decision-making," said Sen. Jon Bramnick.

"Having reviewed the record, we discern no abuse of discretion in the trial court's determination as it relates to the counterclaims," the opinion said. "In short, ARF simply did not provide Seaside with any information that would support the counterclaims.

"I think what employers would really like from the Legislature is more certainty. Not making laws that, to figure out what it means, you have to go to litigation," David A.

"Merck later admitted its lawsuit had no merit because it had failed to disclose prior art to the United States Patent and Trademark Office that would have resulted in the denial of patent protection for Zetia," the complaint said.

"When employers unlawfully and callously toss their workers into the 'independent contractor' category they are not only depriving them of a steady paycheck, they are also stripping them of earned sick leave, workers compensation, minimum wage, and more," Attorney General Matthew J.
