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.

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.

Fraudulent Conveyance Actions

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.

Viewing Time: 94 minutes
On November 3, 2020, voters in California passed Proposition 19, which contained two (2) extremely important changes to California’s property tax reassessment rules that will impact and have profound consequences on the transfer of real property between parents and. Parents who transfer their real property to their children after the effective date of Proposition 19 will cause a property tax reassessment. Proposition 19 limits the availability of the parent-child exclusion for real property tax reassessments.

Proposition 19 eliminates: (i) the parent-child/grandparent/grandchild exclusion from property tax reassessment for transfers of a residence between parents and; and (ii) the transfer of $1 million of assessed value of additional real property.
The other significant change in Prop 19 is generally beneficial to homeowners and takes effect on April 1, 2021. Prop 19 expands the class of people who qualify for a transfer of their taxable value from their current home to a new property.
