Dear priat9er2000,
It is my understanding that it is unlawful to use the California Bear in a logo.
"It's unlawful in California to offer business services by using an insignia, term, or symbol that could be construed to imply either a connection with a State agency or State approval or endorsement of those services. Bus. & Prof. Code ยง 17533.6(a)."
Please see

Thank you.
