I'm sorry to hear about your child's misfortunate. I will say I have litigated these kind of cases against schools. You would think they would do the right thing, but they rarely do. I have litigated death claims against the LAUSD and in my experience the LAUSD and their attorneys have... View More
I travel 8 days per month, but they are always a different 8 days. I don't want to lose any of my 15 days with my kids. Will a judge allow us to develop a schedule on a month to month basis that accommodates this as long as it is perceived as fair to the other parent? I'm not a pilot,... View More

Although family law courtrooms are very crowded, especially this time of year, Judges for the most part do strive to create workable schedules for working people with minor children. You're right that you need to keep working and supporting your children and you should not miss out because of... View More

So I will redo your question if that's okay because what you seem to be asking is not about discrimination, but about landlord-tenant relations.
Discrimination in housing would be, for example, if they will not rent to Black people, or gay people, or old people, because those groups... View More
7 times in contempt. A few days ago he broke into my home and held me hostage at gunpoint. Can I sue the sheriff's for failing to arrest him on the 7 violations?
answered on Sep 29, 2018
This is California so you can sue anybody for anything. I think your question is really, "If I sue the sheriff, will I win?" And the answer is probably not. What you're asking is really a liability question, or fault. Whether the sheriff dept is liable because he, the ex, kept... View More

How do you know the statements are false or misleading? What is your proof that the statements are false or misleading? Are you a party to the child custody case? Or are you simply someone who knows the truth? There are too many uncertainties in your question. Filing documents with the supreme... View More
The term of this agreement is for 1 year, beginning on 3/9/16 and ending on 3/9/17, at which time the lease shall terminate without further notice. Any holding thereafter shall result in resident being liable to owner/agent for all rental damages equal to the current market value of the unit... View More

So your agreement is the same as California law, 30 days' notice if less than 1 year, 60 days' notice of 1 year or more. Since it is 2018, you have been there for more than 1 year. So that's the answer.
If you're moving in December first, give written notice to him by... View More

So I'm not clear if you are saying that he filed the divorce without knowledge and got a judgment already or just filed the divorce. When a divorce is filed, the papers must be personally served by an independent person, a non party to the divorce, and cannot be served by mail or Fed Ex,... View More
My old attorney included the amount for daycare in the $559 monthly CS amount. But when our son entered kindergarten and no longer required daycare, my ex and I agreed to the amount of 350, which does not include daycare fees. Now she's opened up a cs case and the LCSA is claiming I'm... View More

Unfortunately, the court order still says what it says and CSS will enforce it until you change it. You can voluntarily agree and submit it to the judge or to the CSS if you both go in person and sign a stipulation, but without that agreement in writing or in person, you need to file a request for...

He has been convicted numerous times for domestic violence with his ex wife, sister, and step dad. Convicted of violent assault on them over the past 12 years.

No, you are not liable unless called as a witness and lie or if questioned by certain law enforcement agencies and lie, like the FBI. As along as you are not participating. Restraining orders generally say that the restrained person will not have anyone act on their behalf. So be certain... View More
I been with this company for a little over a year , they were accommodating when I told them I needed to take a paternity leave. It’s been over a month now since I told them in person and on phone that I was ready, but they keep putting it off, and keep saying they put me in the schedule next week.

So it sounds like they are not going to hire you back, but since you posted this I do not know if they have called you as I see it has been several weeks. If yes, then great for you and maybe others with similar questions can benefit. If no, then I can tell you I had a recent case of a father... View More
When I reached out to my manager, letting her know I'd be coming back, she told me that she didn't have any hours to give me because they had just hired someone a few weeks prior.

So the law on return from pregnancy depends on a number of factors. If you came to office I would ask things like how many people work there - very important as to which laws apply. If its 3 people, then no. If it's 50 or more, then maybe yes. Understand that the law has many rules but even... View More

Based on your question, I am hoping you mean an EDD Unemployment Appeal, which if I'm correct you got a letter stating that under Unemployment Insurance Code 1256 you are disqualified and must now work another quarter and earn a certain amount before you can reapply. If I'm correct, then... View More
I was never charged. The Board of Nursing asks directly if applicants were convicted of any crimes, which I wasn't. They also require a finger LiveScan, which will show an arrest. I've read not to disclose things that look bad that are unnecessary. I've also read that they could... View More

In California, you must disclose. Don't take a risk or you will likely be prevented from obtaining your license. You're correct that an arrest is not admissible evidence of any wrongdoing, only a conviction, and generally there are factors in the courtroom of even admitting a... View More
