Court rules fund disclosure rule for ballot measures unconstitutional

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Arthur K. Marshall declared a state law requiring public reports on financial contributions to ballot measures unconstitutional.

The ruling addresses three oil firms Mobil Gulf and Standard of California acknowledging anonymous $95,000 to Californians against the street and road tax trap. Brown plans an appeal.
