California video game law fails again in Circuit Court

The 9th Circuit Court has affirmed that the California
game law is not going to fly -- so, state tax payers better prepare to write the Entertainment Software Association
another check. This latest
appeal was pushed by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger after a lower court had seemingly killed the law by placing a
permanent injunction on it.
ESA president Michael Gallagher
believes this is a "win" for California's citizens, stating this is a "clear signal" that this type of "reckless" legislation is an "exercise in wasting taxpayer money, government time, and state resources."
GamePolitics reports that
Leland Yee (D) is pushing for California to appeal the ruling to the Supreme Court. Wonder how much money the ESA would
get back from fighting that?
