Morris v. Williams

In Morris v. Williams (1967) 67 Cal.2d 733, there was a challenge to the validity of a welfare regulation, as here, on the basis that it was in conflict with the statute. The court distinguished such challenge. "To put it another way, it is unnecessary for us to review administrative action for abuse of discretion, where we find no discretion was in fact conferred." ( Id., at p. 749.)
