Be Prepared for California Civil Rights Laws

This publication takes the civil rights law chapters of California Forms of Pleading and Practice and combines them in one easy to use eBook publication. Civil rights claims and litigation are booming in California, with examples including matters that have become more common recently (e.g., police misconduct, human trafficking, sexual assault on college campuses) and others that have been active for many years (e.g., privacy, employment and housing discrimination, abortion, free speech). Civil rights litigation may have several administrative requirements before filing a lawsuit (e.g, presentment of claim to government agency as a prerequisite to civil litigation). The scope of civil rights claims have been expanding in recent years, and the diverse selection of chapters for this publication prepare the customers for a wide range of topics.
