LA MESA, Calif., June 25, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Three hundred seventy-eight days after the California Fish and Game Commission unanimously voted to give further consideration to a petition seeking removal of domestic ferrets from California’s restricted species list, the petition remains unresolved, says Legalize Ferrets (Legalizeferrets.org).

Photo caption: Dino pauses for a photo while exploring his favorite room in the house – the laundry room. More than a year after California regulators voted to consider Petition 2025-003, the petition remains unresolved.

No recommendation has been issued. No determination has been provided to the petitioner. No final action has been taken.

Petitioners argue that the result is a procedural dead end: had the petition been denied, they could have sought judicial review. Instead, the petition was accepted and referred for evaluation, but remains unresolved more than a year later.

“The unusual part of this case is that acceptance of the petition appears to have left us with fewer practical remedies than a denial would have,” said Pat Wright, founder of LegalizeFerrets.org. “Had the petition been rejected, we could have challenged that decision. Instead, it was accepted, referred, and then left unresolved.”

A PETITION ACCEPTED BUT NEVER DECIDED

On June 11, 2025, the Fish and Game Commission voted unanimously to give further consideration to Petition 2025-003 and referred the matter to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife for evaluation.

Had the Commission denied the petition, petitioners could have pursued available legal remedies. Had the petition proceeded through the normal administrative process, the Department would have completed its review and returned a recommendation to the Commission.

Instead, 378 days later, the petition remains pending without a final determination.

Petitioners contend that the State’s inaction has created a situation in which the administrative process has stalled while no final agency decision exists for a court to review.

PUBLIC RECORDS RAISE ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS

Seeking to understand the status of the petition, petitioners submitted multiple requests under the California Public Records Act.

In response to an April 2026 records request, the Department reported that no responsive records existed. A later records request produced internal documents showing the petition was known to Department personnel and appeared on an internal petitions agenda.

Meeting notes from an April 29, 2026 petitions meeting show discussion of several petitions. The notation for the ferret petition states only: “No discussion.”

Records produced to date have revealed no documented recommendation, evaluation, or analysis of Petition 2025-003.

Additional records revealed litigation-hold communications relating to the petition and subsequent litigation.

THE QUESTION BEFORE THE COURT

The litigation does not ask the court to legalize ferrets.

Instead, the case seeks judicial review of whether state agencies have fulfilled their legal obligations after accepting a petition for consideration.

According to filings in the case, the State argues that petitioners generally must await final agency action before seeking judicial review. Petitioners argue that because no final action has ever been taken, they have been left in procedural limbo—unable to obtain a decision from the agency while simultaneously being told there is no final decision to challenge.

“The question extends beyond ferrets,” Wright said. “If an agency can accept a petition and then simply never complete the process, the public’s right to petition government becomes largely meaningless. Citizens should be entitled to an answer.”

JOHNSTOWN, Colo., June 23, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — On The Hook Fish & Chips today announced the opening of its first permanent dine-in experience in Johnstown, Colorado. The Wyoming-founded company chose June 27 for the grand opening to commemorate two milestones in its history: serving guests in 27 states and operating 27 food trucks nationwide.

Located at 4884 Larimer Pkwy, Johnstown, CO 80534, the new location offers guests a new way to enjoy the On The Hook experience while remaining true to the company’s roots. Beginning June 27, the location will be open Monday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 8:30 p.m.

Founded in 2016 in Laramie, Wyoming, by University of Wyoming students, On The Hook Fish & Chips began with a simple mission: to serve high-quality, line-caught fish and chips in communities with limited access to fresh seafood. What started as a single food truck has grown into a company serving guests across 27 states, operating 27 trucks, and serving more than 7 million meals.

“The opening of our first dine-in experience is an exciting milestone for everyone who has helped build On The Hook over the past decade,” said Ocean Andrew, CEO of On The Hook Fish & Chips. “While we’ve grown far beyond our first truck in Wyoming, our commitment remains the same: serving high-quality seafood, creating memorable guest experiences, and staying connected to the communities we serve.”

The new dine-in experience represents an important chapter in the company’s history while preserving the qualities that have defined On The Hook from the beginning: simple menus, responsibly sourced seafood, and an unwavering commitment to quality.

Guests can expect the same line-caught fish, signature sauces, and familiar menu items that have made On The Hook a favorite for nearly 10 years, now offered in a welcoming space designed for families, friends, and the local community.

Community members are invited to join the celebration and help mark the beginning of this new chapter for On The Hook Fish & Chips.

HOURS OF OPERATION
Monday – Saturday: 11 a.m. – 8:30 p.m.
Closed Sundays.
