The Merchant of Tennis v. Superior Court (Cal. Ct. App. - April 2, 2026)

I wrote this back on the same day the amendment to the opinion came out on March 23, and today the Court of Appeal issues this.

Today's modification doesn't mention it, but the docket also reflects that on March 24, 25 and 26, the prior amendment was stricken, the remittitur was issued, and then the next day the Court of Appeal ordered the remittitur recalled. Leading to a renewed remittitur and amended opinion today.

All of which is a lot of procedural work just to get things cleaned up the way they should be.

Which I'm sure everyone appreciates. So thanks, Justice Miller.
