- W2242568388 abstract "Most U.S. laws prohibiting discrimination by businesses focus on specific types of discrimination - race, religion, gender, age, or disability, for example. For over 100 years, California has taken a significant step further, prohibiting all forms of arbitrary business discrimination. Until recently, therefore, California businesses could not exclude someone on the simple excuse because I don't like you or because I don't like your kind. Over the past 10 years, however, a few lower California courts have radically cut back these statutory protections, holding that the law now known as the Unruh Act only prohibits discrimination on the basis of characteristics specifically enumerated in that act - sex, race, color, religion, ancestry, national origin, or disability. If followed, this line of cases threatens to overturn a century of innovative anti-discrimination jurisprudence. Some might view this movement, not yet ratified by the state Supreme Court, as evidence of extreme judicial activism. Yet it may result at least in part from the lack of a set of well-articulated standards for adjudicating discrimination claims not framed in terms of suspect classes. Part I of the article reviews the history of the California's ban on arbitrary discrimination by businesses from the 1897 Act to the most recent legislative amendments. This history establishes that the California legislature intended, and until recently the courts had uniformly construed, the ban to prohibit all forms of arbitrary discrimination. Part II examines the recent cases that purport radically to limit that ban, focusing in particular on difficulties that may have led recent lower courts to their seemingly extreme conclusions. Part III, finally, attempts to resolve these difficulties, proposing an approach, consistent with the 100-year history of the ban, that would permit courts to continue to respect the repeatedly-stated will of the legislature." @default.
