2013Although the federal circuits have applied various tests and exceptions, see Martin v. Fisher, 11 Cal.App.4th 118 , 13 Cal.Rptr.2d 922, 924 (1992), we specifically adopt the Ninth Circuit’s analysis because its precedent applies to EEOC complaints jointly filed with the HCRC; adopting its precedent would therefore be consistent with the legislature’s intention of providing employment discrimination victims with the same remedies under state and federal law.
