DocketDescription: Order filed.; Notes: THE COURT: On April 29, 2022, the Attorney General served and filed a document entitled "State of California's Joinder In Petition For Writ of Mandate and/or Prohibition or Other Appropriate Relief and Request For Immediate Stay." The document simply states, "that petitioner-defendant State of California hereby joins in petitioners-defendants California Department of Education, Tony Thurmond, and State Board of Education's Petition for Writ of Mandate and/or Prohibition or Other Appropriate Relief and Request for Immediate Stay, filed on April 28, 2022." To the extent the State of California seeks to join in the petition for writ of mandate such request is denied, and the Clerk of the Court is directed to strike the filing of April 29, 2022. This denial is without prejudice to the filing of a formal petition for writ in compliance with all applicable statutes and court rules or a brief as a real party in interest supporting the petition. (See Bridget A. v. Superior Court (2007) 148 Cal.App.4th 285, 300, fn. 5; see also Eisenberg et al., Cal. Practice Guide: Civil Appeals & Writs (The Rutter Group 2021) 15:141 ["Any coparty who wants to join in the writ petition should expressly be made a copetitioner (or file a separate writ petition)"].)
