Even while acknowledging its consonance with section 17203's plain language, the majority largely invalidates the trial court's remedial order in this case, asserting that "permitting orders for disgorgement into a fluid recovery fund [in UCL actions] would be inconsistent with the Legislature's decision to expressly authorize fluid recovery in class actions and, by providing that Consumers Legal Remedies Act (Civ.Code, § 1750 et seq.) suits on behalf of the plaintiff and other similarly situated consumers may be brought as class actions, ... while failing to authorize fluid recovery in representative UCL actions." (Maj. opn., ante, 96 Cal.Rptr.2d at p. 500, 999 P.2d at p. 732; see also id. at p. 496, 999 P.2d at p. 728, citing Code Civ. Proc., § 384.)
