California remains at the forefront of consumer litigation,
enforcement and regulation. We are pleased to provide our
2021 Annual Overview of California's Unfair Competition
Law ("UCL") and Consumers Legal Remedies Act
("CLRA").
The Annual Overview includes a comprehensive summary of both the
state of the law and noteworthy recent developments. The law
concerning the UCL and CLRA evolved significantly in 2021, most
notably in the areas of arbitration, standing and equitable
abstention. As in prior years, litigation under the UCL and the
CLRA remained vigorous. We expect that 2022 will continue to show
high levels of activity in this area of the law.
