What search criteria should be to find on Court website California and local rules for concurrent hearing on two Motions?
answered on Mar 3, 2024
The 4th Amendment, as you know, covers illegal search and seizures. California, of course, follows that law.
However, it is usually discussed with criminal cases, not malpractice.
It would be best if you clarified your question.
Neither my supervisor or or Manager did an injury report do I need to return to work until a Worker’s Comp. claim is filed

Received an infraction in 2018 in California for ingesting marijuana in public. I recently got a job as an office assistant at a high school so I'm worried this will show up on my live scan check and I will be denied the job. I was never finger printed, just paid a fine.

Tickets are infractions and show up.
Why not contact an inexpensive criminal attorney that can TRY to remove it (Expungement) from your record.
I am to expensive, but would give you a name if you can afford to retain a lawyer.
I am guessing it would be in the $750-$1500 range.
No injuries just property damage

You will probably lose your license for a year.
If they had auto insurance, they will go after their own insurance under the UM provisions.
If they didn't have insurance, a lawyer will not take their case, and they will sue for up to $10,000 in small claims court.
