The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals has made its decision in
California Trucking Association v. Becerra and the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. Sadly, it is yet another horrible blow against the California independent professional and the independent trucking industry.

In his dissent, Judge Mark Bennett summed up the impact of the appellate court’s decision in language that the California trucking sector has been dreading for many months in the case originally brought by the California Trucking Association.
