CA passed a law (SB1327) that says unless you win at the 9th circuit, any pro 2a party will have to pay for all of CA's attorney fee's and there is no limit. So if CA uses 1000 lawyers to fight an anti 2a case, and the pro 2a side loses at the 9th circuit, then you gotta pay for all 1000 lawyers hours spent.
They attached this clause to the other part of the bill about 18-20 years olds owning long guns. Sneaky right.

"Notwithstanding any other law, any person, including an entity,
attorney, or law firm, who seeks declaratory or injunctive relief to
prevent this state, a political subdivision, a governmental entity or
public official in this state, or a person in this state from enforcing any
statute, ordinance, rule, regulation, or any other type of law that
regulates or restricts firearms, or that represents any litigant seeking that
relief, is jointly and severally liable to pay the attorney’s fees and costs
of the prevailing party."
Until law makers are held responsible via arrest, trial, jail, and fines, they will continue to get away with and do what ever they want.
