The California State Supreme Court rules on red light cameras
Headline News |
2014/06/10 12:13
|
The California Supreme Court has ruled against a Southern California woman who challenged a traffic ticket based on red-light camera photos and video.
In a unanimous ruling on Thursday, the court said the red-light camera evidence against Carmen Goldsmith was adequately authenticated and there was no need to adopt stricter evidence rules for red-light camera violations.
Goldsmith was accused of running a red light in Inglewood in 2009 and fined $436. A police officer testified at her court hearing.
Goldsmith's lawyer had called for testimony from the camera's manufacturer. But the Supreme Court said the officer's testimony was sufficient.

McKennon Law Group - Los Angeles ERISA Litigation Lawyer
Lawyer News |

The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, also known as ERISA, governs certain employer-provided health insurance, life insurance, and disability insurance plans. The federal ERISA statute enacted was meant to protect employees by establishing remedies for benefits denials, breaches of fiduciary duties, and failures to provide notice of plan terms or benefit changes. Unfortunately, insurance companies and ERISA insurance plans ofen use the ERISA regulation complexities as a way to improperly deny ERISA claims for ERISA benefits causing individuals to appeal through an administrative process or bring a Federal court lawsuit to recover their ERISA benefits.
Many attorneys are uncomfortable with ERISA cases, and will usually not take these types of cases. Well-funded insurance companies have a clear advantage over sick, disabled, or grieving claimants who do not have experienced ERISA attorneys. Specific rules and strict deadlines govern the ERISA administrative process that individuals must follow before they are allowed to file an ERISA lawsuit. Individuals must comply with the insurance plan's appellate procedures and ERISA law in order to bring an ERISA lawsuit. An attorney specializing in ERISA law can help identify mistakes and weaknesses in the insurer's review and ensure your ERISA administrative record contains appropriate evidence needed to support your claim and navigate the appeals process.
The McKennon Law Group specializes in ERISA insurance and insurance bad faith claims, appeals, and trials. The attorneys at the McKennon Law Group have over forty years of combined experience in litigating ERISA insurance and insurance bad faith cases. Attorneys Robert J. McKennon and Scott E. Calvert have previously represented large insurance companies issuing policies of disability, life, health, and long-term care insurance. Therefore, we can offer a unique perspective and broader understanding of how the insurance industry approaches both ERISA and insurance bad faith claims.
If you're in need of a Los Angeles ERISA Litigation attorney to litigate your ERISA insurance or insurance bad faith claim, please call (949) 387-9595 for a free consultation. |

From the moment an employee is injured, there are time limits for both the employee and employer. Employers must make certain reports to the court system for North Carolina Worker's Compensation case, Industrial Commission. Employer reports do not satisfy the reporting obligations of the employee or extend the time limit for the employee to make his claim.
Under certain circumstances, an injured employee may report their injury to their employer and even be paid for time missed from work. If the employee does not make the proper filing with the Industrial Commssion, the employee's claim can be dismissed and they will receive no further benefits.
It is critical to know what benefits to demand. An injured worker is entitled to numerous benefits, unfortunately it is not the employer's obligation to advise their injured employee of these benefits. At DiRusso & DiRusso, we offer free consultations with attorneys who practice Worker's Compensation.
If you're in need of a Surry County Worker's Compensation Lawyer, contact DiRusso & DiRusso today.

High Court Refuses to Block Oregon Gay Marriage
Legal Focuses |
2014/06/06 14:27
|
The U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday refused to halt same-sex weddings in Oregon while a federal appeals court considers whether a group opposed to gay marriage can intervene in the case.
The order follows an emergency appeal by the National Organization for Marriage, which seeks to overturn U.S. District Judge Michael McShane's May 19 ruling that declared Oregon's same-sex marriage ban unconstitutional. The group had unsuccessfully tried to intervene in the lower court proceeding after Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum declined to defend the same-sex ban.
The group filed its request with Justice Anthony Kennedy and he referred it to the full court. The justices denied it without comment.
Hundreds of same-sex couples have obtained marriage licenses since McShane's order, including 245 in Multnomah County, the state's largest.
The Oregon case differs from others where the Supreme Court or federal appeals judges have temporarily blocked lower-court rulings, halting same-sex unions while appeals proceed.
In Oregon, the appeal is focused on whether an outside group can intervene in the case, not on the constitutionality of the same-sex marriage ban, so it raises a different set of legal questions.
Lawyers for the attorney general's office have said they won't appeal McShane's ruling and are fighting the National Organization for Marriage's appeal in the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.
Rosenblum, the attorney general, said there were no legal arguments she could offer in defense of the marriage ban that would be consistent with decisions last year by the U.S. Supreme Court and with state laws. |
