A Sacramento judge has ruled that the governor can unilaterally order furloughs for state workers, without bargaining:
Marlette's ruling said the state's current budget crisis and lack of funds represented an emergency and the governor's order was
reasonable and necessary under the circumstances.
The furlough plan does not apply to the CSU.
