11:01 pm
supreme court justices said that a national injunction is outside the power of a district court judge. the high court did not rule on the constitutionality of president trump's executive order. constitutional law professor laurie levenson told us this decision could have unexpected consequences. >> it does apply to both sides. and so you've had forum shopping by the conservatives, for example, finding a judge in texas who's going to strike down abortion medication and saying that there should be a national injunction on that. that's not going to be allowed either. so i think what it's going to do is constrain a bit. the judges can still rule the way they want to rule. the question will be the. >> for now, the executive order is on a 30 day pause in 22 states that have filed lawsuits against the order, including california, pending further legal action. the right to u.s. citizenship at birth was reaffirmed in 1898. that's when the supreme court ruled that a san francisco man born in the

11:08 pm
oakland international airport, a legal decision many travelers agreed with. >> i think the name should stay the same. that's what i think. >> the port of oakland at the time, saying the change would attract more non-stops by boosting awareness of the airport's location on the san francisco bay, the city of san francisco, in turn arguing the change would lead to confusion and infringe upon sfo copyright. on friday, the port of oakland, acknowledging sfo legal objections, emphasizing that this time it's putting, quote, oakland first. patricia scoggins left, scratching her head. >> i think it's a little funny. it's, you know, so oakland, san francisco, san francisco, oakland, what's the deal? >> well, the back and forth may be amusing to some travelers. amir adeeb, a san francisco patent law expert, still doesn't think the new name would hold up in court. >> legally speaking, the issue is that san francisco is still prominent. it's the second part.

11:15 pm
>> this annual increase replaced a gasoline sales tax that overly benefited the state when gas prices spiked. >> it was set in order to each year adjust so that it generates about the same amount of revenue. now, instead of it changing every week as the price of gasoline goes up and down, it changes once a year. >> drivers still don't like it when you consider overall gas taxes alone. that people pay will cost the average household $612 a year. beyond that, consumers may soon see another 13 to $0.17 a gallon increase to pay for an incentive paid to fuel providers to lower the carbon content of their fuels. >> particularly with what's going on in the middle east. gas, i guess, is going to be one of the worst things of it. it trickles down to everything. >> it really seems unfair that something that is kind of like our life lifeblood is being

taken advantage of. >> i travel a lot with my husband and my family. we do a lot of road trips and everything. it's so expensive for us to go. >> for the rest of the year, i'm not looking forward to paying more at the pump every time i come in. i think taxes are definitely affecting my ability to get around the bay area now. >> pure electric vehicles pay zero gas taxes, but still have benefit of the roads that are maintained, improved and built with gasoline taxes. a basic unfairness. tom vacar ktvu, fox two news. [music] >> today in sacramento, a judge upheld the jury's death penalty verdict for the man accused of murdering police officer tara o'sullivan. she was responding to a domestic violence incident in june 2019 with four other officers when adele ramos opened fire, hitting o'sullivan, who later died at the hospital. now, o'sullivan's mother is speaking for the first time one on one about her daughter's murder. after today's sentencing. >> these are her handcuffs. so
11:17 pm
the defendant murderer was led away in those today, which was very poignant for our family to be able to witness him being put in handcuffs and then being led off. >> it is unlikely ramos will actually be executed. since governor newsom imposed a moratorium on executions, which is in effect until he removes it or another governor does once he's out of office. sacramento renamed the bridge over the american river for o'sullivan in 2022. the colorado funeral home owner, who stored bodies in a decrepit building and sent grieving families fake ashes, was sentenced to do two decades in prison today. john halford pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit wire fraud last year. in 2023, investigators found bodies that his customers had wanted cremated, stacked on top of each other in a building in penrose, southwest of colorado springs. prosecutors say he also defrauded the federal government out of nearly $900,000 in covid relief. a branding battle is
