p0475 Although the Public Utilities Code provides that only the California Supreme Court and Court of Appeal have jurisdiction to review decisions of the Public Utilities Commission, the Commission does not have exclusive jurisdiction over all actions against a public utility, and the mere possibility of, or potential for, conflict with allegations under consideration by the Public Utilities Commission is insufficient to preclude a civil action, since the Superior Court can tailor its proceedings to avoid actual conflict.CitationPEOPLE ex rel ORLOFF v PAC BELL (PUC Pre-emption) 31 C4 1132 [See: PUC 1759, 2101, 2105; GovC 26509; SDG&E v Superior Court 13 C4 893, T/AT 9/96; Cellular Plus v Superior Court 14 CA4 1224]
