¶94 Under Bechard v. Rappold, 287 F.3d 827, 829 (9th Cir. 2002), a court should consider two questions when determining whether an act is legislative. First, a court must determine whether the act involves ad hoc decision making or the formulation of policy; and second, whether the act applies to a few individuals or to the public at large. Bechard, 287 F.3d at 829. A court also should consider whether the act was formally legislative and whether the act bears all the hallmarks of traditional legislation. Bechard, 287 F.3d at 829.
