This is really great. How did amazon’s case manage to get the opposite ruling, years ago?

Amazon was ruled using federal law as not everyone in the suit was based in California. In this case, it’s Californians suing under California law.

The ninth circuit is a federal court with no jurisdiction over state laws.

Either the Ninth Circuit overstepped their jurisdiction when they ruled[0] on whether Apple violated “California Industrial Welfare Commission Wage Order No. 7”,[1] or they actually do have jurisdiction.

My knowledge of the courts is that they are pretty strict about jurisdiction, so I’m led to believe that they actually do have it.

Also, they mention that they do:[2]

> We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291.
