The Times said at the time of the event, the trial lawyers' group -- the Consumer Attorneys of California -- was seeking to relax some labor rules, particularly those relating to overtime pay. The newspaper said the group got what it wanted in the state budget package approved in February.
Dan Morain, a spokesman for the lawyers' group, was quoted as saying the organization helped bankroll the retreat because "consumer attorneys are proud to participate in the democratic process."
A leading government watchdog group decried the event."This is an unending problem in Sacramento, where lobbying groups bring politicians somewhere to wine and dine them," said Doug Heller, executive director of Consumer Watchdog. "No matter who they represent, groups think that's the way you play the game."
