Cases and Materials on the California Rulemaking Process by Chris Micheli
This is a casebook about the regulatory process in the State of California, although the state's APA is based largely on the federal Administrative Procedure Act, (APA), just like those of most of the fifty states. While readers can find quite a few books and resources on the federal regulatory process, few such materials are dedicated to the California process.
This casebook was put together to explore the state's rulemaking process as this had not been done before in the form of a casebook designed for college and law students. While the fundamentals of the state's rulemaking process are similar to those at the federal level, and most other states, there certainly are differences and important considerations when involved in the quasi-legislative activities of California's more than 200 rulemaking bodies.
This casebook is focused on the rulemaking process and does not cover the remainder of the work of administrative agencies, such as their adjudicatory or quasi-judicial activities. In that vein, this casebook discusses the Office of Administrative Law, but not the Office of Administrative Hearings, as the work of OAH does not concern the rulemaking or quasi-legislative work of the state's administrative agencies.
After discussing introductory aspects of California's regulatory process, the casebook turns to the component parts of the rulemaking process and the specifics of California law.
About the Author: Chris Micheli is a founding partner of the Sacramento governmental relations and advocacy firm of Aprea & Micheli, Inc. As a legislative advocate, Micheli frequently testifies before policy and fiscal committees of the California Legislature, as well as a number of administrative agencies, departments, boards, and commissions. He regularly drafts legislative and regulatory language and is considered a leading authority on state tax law developments, California's knife laws, and the state legislative process. The Wall Street Journal called him "one of the top three business tax lobbyists in the state" and the Los Angeles Times described him as an "elite lobbyist."Over the last twenty years, he has published hundreds of articles and editorials in professional journals, newspapers, and trade magazines, whose diverse subjects range from tax incentives to transportation funding. He wrote a bi-monthly column on civil justice reform for five years for The Daily Recorder, Sacramento's daily legal newspaper. He has served on the editorial advisory board for CCH's State Income Tax Alert, a nationwide publication, as well as State Income Tax Monitor, another national newsletter, and Sacramento Lawyer, a monthly legal journal. Micheli has been an attorney of record in several key cases, having argued before the Supreme Court of California (just two years out of law school), as well as the Court of Appeal several times. He has filed more than fifteen amicus curiae briefs in California courts and is admitted to practice law before all of the state and federal courts in the state. He has published six peer-reviewed law review articles and is the co-editor and co-author of the book "A Practitioner's Guide to Lobbying and Advocacy in California," as well as the author of "Understanding the California Legislative Process," both published in 2020 by Kendall-Hunt Publishing Company. His most recently-published books released in 2021 are "Introduction to California Government" and "An Introduction to Legislative Drafting in California." He is also the co-author of "Guide to Executive Branch Agency Rulemaking." He also published two law school casebooks entitled "The California Legislature and Its Legislative Process - Cases and Materials" and "Cases and Materials on Direct Democracy in California." He is a graduate of the University of California, Davis with a B.A. in Political Science - Public Service and the University of the Pacific, McGeorge School of Law with a J.D. degree. He currently serves as an Adjunct Professor of Law at McGeorge where he co-teaches the course Lawmaking in California, as well as a Lecturer in Law at the University of California, Davis, King Hall School of Law where he co-teaches the course Legislative Drafting.
