Assemblyman Mike Cullen of Long Beach failed to obtain permission from the Assembly Rules Committee to introduce a late hour tax appraiser reform bill. The move faced opposition from State Controller Houston Flournoy, who planned to push a similar measure next session. Cullen proposed capping appraiser fees to a reasonable sum, noting current law allows up to 60 000 dollars for part time work.

An East German inquiry blamed a crossing attendant for failing to lower barriers before a double decker passenger train struck a gas truck near Magdeburg.

Lynch Seeks to Overturn San Quentin Execution Stay
Atty Thomas Lynch said he will ask the U S Court of Appeals to dissolve a federal pause on executions at San Quentin. He plans a petition for writ of prohibition and a Monday hearing to challenge the stay as many on death row have not exhausted state appeals. The move could delay the August 3 hearing and kept California’s capital punishment in limbo.
