- A case of first impression involving interpretation and application of the California law requiring the licensing of talent agents, the California Supreme Court held that there is no statute of limitations on an entertainer's use of the statute as a defense against the claims of unlicensed talent agents.

The case was subsequently settled without payment by Ms. Chilton's client.
