MODIFICATION OF OPINION
THE COURT:
The opinion filed on January 28, 2008, and appearing at 42 Cal.4th 974, is
modified as follows:
On page 981, in the fourth full paragraph on that page, the following two
sentences are deleted:
?The Labor Commissioner agreed, finding that Marathon had
violated the Act by providing talent agency services without a
license, including ?procur[ing] work for [Blasi] as an actress on the
. . . television series, Strong Medicine.? It voided the parties?
contract ab initio and barred Marathon from recovery.?

Substitute the following for the deleted sentences:
?The Labor Commissioner agreed. The Commissioner found
Marathon had procured various engagements for Blasi, including a
role in the television series Strong Medicine. Concluding that one or
more acts of solicitation and procurement by Marathon violated the
Act, the Commissioner voided the parties? contract ab initio and
barred Marathon from recovery.?

This modification does not affect the judgment.
