Description
Proceeding under section 19480.5 of the Business and Professions Code, plaintiff applied to the California Horse Racing Board for a determination that the purposes of the horse racing law (Bus. & Prof. Code, §§ 19420 et seq.) and public interest would be served by the construction by it of a track for horse race meetings at Puente, Los Angeles County, California. The application was denied, and plaintiff thereupon presented a petition for a writ of mandate to the superior court to compel the board to issue a license to it for such purpose, and that court agreed with the board. Plaintiff now asserts that the licensing provisions of the horse racing law are invalid in that they constitute an unlawful delegation of legislative power to the board without adequate standards (Cal. Const., arts. III and IV, § 1); that improper evidence was admitted before the board; that the evidence was insufficient to sustain its determination or that of the superior court; and that the board acted irregularly.
