Wrongful Death
Our attorneys frequently handle claims alleging violation of individuals civil rights arising under both state and federal law, including lawsuits alleging violations of 42 U.S.C. Section 1983 and California's equivalent, the Bane Act. Lozano Smith's police civil rights attorneys vigorously defend peace officers in federal and state court against a wide variety of claims, including excessive force, unlawful arrest, civil rights, wrongful death, assault and battery, negligence, and seizure actions. We have handled class action cases ranging from hundreds to thousands of plaintiffs, and aided clients against claims seeking punitive damages. Our holistic focus on clients is regularly demonstrated with our understanding of the underlying training, policies and practices related to law enforcement officers. Not only do our attorneys provide law enforcement training, our deep bench of litigators and Local Government Practice Group work in conjunction with numerous departments to update and implement appropriate policies.
Misdemeanors
Prior to SB 820 there was minimal statutory guidance on recording classroom instruction in the distance learning environment. As distance learning became a requirement for many school districts in the counties most impacted by the effects of COVID-19, some labor unions relied on Education Code section 51512 to argue that video or audio recording of instruction without the consent of the teacher and school principal is prohibited. Section 51512, which has been in the Education Code for many years, prohibits the use of electronic listening or recording devices in the classroom without the prior consent of the teacher and principal of the school. A violation of this section by someone other than a student is punishable as a misdemeanor, while any violation by a student is subject to appropriate disciplinary action.
