This letter implements the TRO issued in Oster v. Lightbourne. The CMIPS implementation of the 20% reduction did not occur.  DSS did not send out Notices of Action to recipients, and will not be issued pending further authorization from the court.  Counties are to halt any other implementation of the cut, but if recipients already submitted their Applications for IHSS Supplemental Care (SOC 877), Counties are instructed to retain them pending the final resolution of the lawsuit. [Download]
