Don't expect a stem cell love feast on Valentine's Day in the Court of Appeals in California.
That is when foes of the California stem cell agency will go toe-to-toe with state attorneys during oral arguments as the opponents seek to put CIRM out of business. The foes lost during a superior court trial last year and are now appealing that verdict.
An appellate decision could come in a matter of a few weeks following the Feb. 14 hearing, but given the nature of the legal beast, it probably will be later. Then there is likely to be an appeal to the State Supreme Court, where the case is almost certain to terminate, probably before the end of the year.
Oral arguments will begin at 9 a.m. in the First Appellate Court at 350 McAllister St. in San Francisco.
