In the lawsuit between Berkeley neighborhoods and UC Berkeley about the validity of suing over UC enrollment with environmental law, a tentative ruling has raised eyebrows and threatens to transform California as we know it. For starters, the court rightly threw out a key argument against the UC that it should have studied reducing or limiting enrollment as unconvincing. Unfortunately, not for the important reason: that student neighborhoods per-capita have lower emissions contrary to the plaintiff’s claims. Rather, it is out of scope for the UC’s Environmental Impact Report (EIR) as established by precedent.
Superior court is the lowest court; the levels go superior court, then appellate court, then the state Supreme Court. This is an appellate court tentative ruling. The next stop would be the state Supreme Court.

Good catch, it was a mistake!
It's confusing. Why is the superior court the lowest court??? I've made the mistake too.
That is the elegantly human result of mistakes. We learn from them! (hopefully) Vivendo Discimus
