Judge Loretta Giorgi of the Superior Court in San Francisco ruled against the SFMGMBill.org ballot initiative as was expected from her tentative ruling the day before. In addition, she ruled that the Doctors Opposing Circumcision Amicus Curiae brief was untimely and therefore would not be considered.

Outside, a protest was organized by Jonathon Conte and other Bay Area Intactivists to show support for Lloyd Schofield, the proponent of the measure. Two filmmakers and a host of media people were there to document the event.
