People v. Martinezgreen2 sentences2023To be sure, the prosecutor went on to remark that Kim had “expected” the shooter to be in a particular location when Kim had actually testified it was “possible.” Still, the nature of that characterization is sufficiently ambiguous to be within the bounds of reasonable comment on the evidence (see People v. Martinez (2010) 47 Cal.4th 911, 957 [prosecutor has significant leeway in commenting on state of the evidence and may draw reasonable inferences and deductions]; People v.

People v. Sanchezgreen1 sentence2025Kim’s initial statement that her work is verified by a second analyst was admissible as qualification testimony Benson contends admission of Kim’s statement that “[a]ll my work is verified by a second analyst” violated his confrontation clause rights under the principles enunciated in People v. Sanchez (2016) 63 Cal.4th 665, 668 (Sanchez) because it introduced hearsay by a nontestifying expert that the second expert agreed with Kim’s analysis and thus “gave the impression that Kim’s work was entitled to more weight than it would otherwise deserve.” There was no Sanchez violation. | 1 | 1 |
Guardianship of Melissa W.green2 sentences2016Although, contrary to the trial court’s understanding, case law instructs there did not have to be a contempt finding (Guardianship of Melissa W.

Iskanian v. CLS Transportation Los Angeles, LLC

2 sentences2017Iskanian held that "an employee's right to bring a PAGA action is unwaivable," and an employer defendant may not compel a plaintiff employee to arbitrate PAGA claims. ( Iskanian, supra, 59 Cal.4th at p. 383 , 173 Cal.Rptr.3d 289 , 327 P.3d 129 .) Because the court here ordered the parties to arbitrate Kim's individual claims, and then dismissed the PAGA action after Kim and Reins settled the individual claims, Kim asserts that the court "essentially allowed Kim's arbitration agreement to waive his right to pursue a PAGA claim by keeping Kim's claim stayed during the compelled arbitration and t 2017Iskanian held that "an employee's right to bring a PAGA action is unwaivable," and an employer defendant may not compel a plaintiff employee to arbitrate PAGA claims.

Ko argued that he was entitled to relief under section 473, subdivision (b), because his English was weak, he did not understand the legal documents Kim sent him, he had 7 no prior litigation experience, and he was not “fully prepared.” Ko stated in his supporting declaration that he did not spend as much time and effort on his opposition to Kim’s motion for summary judgment as he later realized he should have because he was “so optimistic” about the strength of his statute of limitations argument. | 1 | 2016–2016 |
