City Waived Privilege Over Fair Chance Act Assessments Prepared With Assistance Of Counsel

Civil Rights Dep’t v. City of Torrance, 2026 WL 3215987 (Cal. Ct. App. 2026) In September 2022, the City of Torrance rescinded a conditional offer of employment for a custodian position after a background check revealed the applicant’s multiple criminal convictions. The applicant filed a complaint with the Civil Rights Department (the CRD) under the Fair Chance Act (Cal. Gov’t Code § 12952), and the CRD expanded its investigation to determine whether the City had a pattern of disqualifying applicants (23 in all) without conducting the required “individualized assessments.” The City refused to produce its assessment templates and related documents on the ground that an in-house attorney had helped prepare them. The trial court granted the CRD’s petition to compel production, and the Court of Appeal affirmed, holding that the City waived the attorney-client privilege by defending itself on the basis of the adequacy of its individualized assessments. As the Court explained, the City “cannot demonstrate it complied with section 12952 without putting at issue the adequacy of the individualized assessments.”

School District Violated Labor Code By Rejecting Applicants Based On Expunged Misdemeanor Convictions

A.S. v. Los Angeles Unified Sch. Dist. , 123 Cal. App. 5 th 519 (2026) Two applicants for employment with the Los Angeles Unified School District (one for a part-time after-school program position and the other for a legal secretary position) were rejected based on their prior misdemeanor convictions (for battery and grand theft, respectively), both of which had been expunged pursuant to Cal. Penal Code § 1203.4. The District contended that its duty to protect students required it to screen out applicants with nearly any criminal conviction, notwithstanding expungement. The trial courts in the two separate actions granted summary judgment to the applicants, and the Court of Appeal affirmed in this consolidated appeal, holding that the District violated Cal. Lab. Code § 432.7, which prohibits employers from asking about or utilizing expunged convictions. The Court further held that the statutory exceptions upon which the District relied did not apply because no law required the District to obtain information about, or prohibited it from hiring individuals with, the particular misdemeanor convictions at issue (misdemeanor battery and misdemeanor grand theft).

Landmark Status Granted for Santa Monica's ‘Airplane Bungalow' Against Owners Wishes

SANTA MONICA - Santa Monica's City Council granted landmark status to a rare 1913 bungalow in the Pico neighborhood over its owner's objections. The 5-0 vote protected the vacant house on 20th St., according to the Santa Monica Daily Press . Councilmember Barry Snell recused himself because he lives nearby, and Mayor Pro Tem Jesse Zwick was absent.Owner Lydia King bought the property this year hoping to redevelop it. She told councilmembers she had hoped to build affordable housing or a senior center, describing holes in the roof and floor, a strong mold smell, and break-ins, SMDP reported."We cannot live like 100 years ago," King said.The Santa Monica Conservancy's case for preservation emphasized the home's surviving architecture and neighborhood history.Known as an airplane bungalow, the house has a small, window-filled upper story resembling an airplane cockpit. The Conservancy's property history identifies its sleeping porch and exposed beams extending over the driveway among the distinctive features still in place.The group says the house is the last surviving structure built by Simon and Anna Unfried, early residents of Fairview Heights, now the Pico neighborhood.The designation followed conflicting assessments of the home's significance.Historic Resources Group, the city's consultant, found the house eligible under

Route 66 in California: Desert Towns & Mother Road Stops

Route 66 in California is the last stretch of the Mother Road, running about 345 miles from the Colorado River at Needles to the Pacific at Santa Monica, according to the National Park Service. It packs the whole Route 66 story into one state: empty desert highway, a neon-lit ghost town, a silver-mining boomtown, and a pier at the end. And 2026 is the road’s centennial year, a hundred years since U.S. Route 66 was designated on November 11, 1926.
