VIDEO – Elder Law Planning In Times Of COVID
Category
1 hour MCLE credit
Viewing Time: 68 minutes
Speaker: Heather Chubb
Most people underestimate the risk of developing a disability and needing long-term care. A recent study by the US Department of Health & Human Services concluded that more than 50% of Americans 65 and older can expect to need long-term care for an average of two years. People with certain conditions, such as stroke, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s or other dementia, and multiple sclerosis, among others, can expect to need long-term care for much longer periods, the cost of which can be staggering. Planning for long-term care and end of life decisions is probably the most incomplete piece of an estate plan and the least understood.
A plan that has equal emphasis on planning for wealth transfer and disability/incapacity will preserve options, preserve wealth, and keep families from being blindsided by the effects of long-term care.

Video – A View From The Bench: Evidentiary Issues From A Judicial Perspective
Category
1 hour MCLE credit
Viewing Time: 73 minutes
This video presentation by Judge Curtis M. Fiorini is designed to help lawyers more easily recognize avoidable evidentiary issues and overcome those unexpected objections. A case is ultimately won or lost depending on the evidence presented. Judge Fiorini will share his views of common mistakes and misunderstandings of the Evidence Code he sees on a regular basis. Ever wonder why your objection was overruled or your opponent’s objection to your question was sustained? Many times in the heat of battle, a judge will not give an explanation and lawyers are left to wonder why.
It will focus primarily on some of the more technical requirements of common hearsay exceptions and how to identify and effectively meet them. Judge Fiorini will share practical approaches to addressing some common hearsay obstacles.

VIDEO – FOUNDATIONS OF FEHA: LEARNING THE BASICS OF CALIFORNIA’S CORE EMPLOYMENT STATUTE
Category
1 hour MCLE credit
Viewing Time: 60 minutes
In this video you will learn about how the Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) constitutes the basis for California litigation arising from discrimination, harassment, and retaliation in the workplace. From its inception in 1959 as part of the Government Code, FEHA has been a landmark for employment-based regulations throughout the U.S. FEHA causes of action remain heavily litigated in California courtrooms.
This class, which refreshes a previous FEHA class in 2018 (“May the FEHA Be With You”) will review the foundations of FEHA and its ramifications for employees and employers. We’ll highlight legislative changes to FEHA in the last two years and how the courts are still revising and modifying their interpretations of FEHA’s provisions. We’ll also examine how FEHA stays relevant in the emerging “gig economy,” in which independent contractors are a growing proportion of the labor force.

Video – Sexual Harassment In The Gig Economy-The More Things Stay The Same, The More They Change
Category
1.5 hours MCLE credit
Viewing Time: 88 minutes
The American workplace has changed dramatically in recent years. Sexual harassment has also transitioned from the old to the new workplace and beyond. Sexual harassment may occur during a Zoom meeting, after hours on Twitter or Instagram, or be perpetrated by those over whom the employer has no real control.
This class will examine California and Federal practice pertaining to sexual harassment in the gig economy, where workers are increasingly cast in the roles of independent contractors or temps rather than full-time employees. Courts are striving to adapt to the new economic realities and are increasing the circumstances under which entities and individuals may be held liable.
Instructors David Graulich and Kim Lucia will discuss sexual harassment from both plaintiffs’ and defendants’ perspectives. The topics will include recent cases that impact on sexual harassment in professional relationships, such as Judd v. Weinstein (9th Cir. 2020) 967 F.3d 952, the major components of California sexual harassment laws, the Fair Employment and Housing Act, and Labor Code 51.9, as well as recent changes in California statutes.

Video – Fraudulent Conveyance Actions
Category
1.5 hours MCLE credit
Viewing Time: 81 minutes
So, after months or years of litigation, you finally have a judgment. You recorded your judgment liens and try levying bank accounts, but have no luck collecting your judgment. Finally, you bring the judgment debtor in to court on an order to appear for examination. However, instead of finding assets to satisfy your judgment, you find the debtor has transferred everything years ago to a relative or a business, that is beyond the reach of your writ of execution. Judgment debtors frequently will go to such extremes to avoid paying judgments. Unfortunately, this scenario is all too common. What do you now? You are forced between giving up, and taking your first step into advanced judgment enforcement. In this video Kevin Whiteford, Partner, Serlin & Whiteford, LLP will explain the law and procedures applicable to fraudulent conveyance actions under California’s Uniform Voidable Transactions Act, Civil Code section 3439, et seq. Among the topics to be discussed are: what transactions qualify as voidable transactions; what relief is provided to a creditor under the Act; what provisional remedies are available to prevent further transfers; the elements of a claim under the Act; the applicable statutes of limitations; and who may be held liable under the Act.
