Much has been written about how the California Supreme Court recused itself in the judicial pay case involving retired Justice Mallano as the named plaintiff. See, e.g., here and here. But a few have also noticed that the order (posted on the Court's website under "Of Current Interest" [see below]) is file-stamped October 15, 2019. [10/18/18 update: The file-stamp date has now been corrected.]
