Only in California, folks
According to the official state courts website right now:
courts.ca.gov/about/court-ho… What used to be listed as Cesar Chavez Day (Tuesday, March 31 — a week from today) has been quietly renamed to:“Closed pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure, §135”
That’s it.
No name.
Just the driest legalese they could find.
They didn’t repeal the day off.
They didn’t officially rename it yet.
They just memory-holed the guy behind a code section like it’s some random Tuesday closure.
Peak Sacramento: When your former hero becomes radioactive overnight, don’t fix it… just bury it in bureaucratic fine print so nobody notices.
As a lawyer who’s filed plenty of “pursuant to” motions, I’m dying laughing at how perfectly on-brand this is.
Typical as hell.
