On May 7, 2009, the California Court of Appeals ruled in the Dichon case that the burden is on the FTB if they want to audit behind a voucher. The voucher itself is considered prima facie evidence that the employee is qualified. James Dudley, who took over for Frank Luera at the FTB, stated that the FTB is appealing the Dichon case to the Supreme Court. For now, Dichon is the law of the land, but stay tuned to see if the Supremes decide to take it up.
