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 App. 2026) In September 2022, the City of Torrance rescinded a conditional offer of employment for a custodian position after a background check revealed the applicant’s multiple criminal convictions.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.”

Where to Eat During AFM 2026: Century City and Beverly Hills’ Best Restaurants

AFM 2026 is in the center of the independent film business dealmaking world and close to many of the entertainment biz’s favorite restaurants. Century City and nearby Beverly Hills are home to the major agencies, law firms and financing entities, which equals power lunching and see-and-be-seen gathering spots close to the confab. Throw in some legendary eateries, and AFMers are perfectly positioned to dine where Hollywood dealmakers, agency foot soldiers and bold names eat out. Century City’s dining options start at the host venue: Birdie G’s is the Fairmont Century Plaza’s new full-service restaurant. Expect classic American cooking in a relaxed setting. There will be mobile coffee stations and daily grab-and-go items near the Fairmont’s lower-level conference rooms. Choices include hearty breakfast burritos, creative salads and an array of sandwiches. At the adjacent Westfield Century City, where AFM badge holders can take advantage of a discount program, more than 65 food outlets populate the multi-level, open-air mall. Specializing in dim sum, Din Tai Fung (10250 Santa Monica Blvd., second level, dtf.com) excels in Taiwan-style, handmade soup dumplings and flavorful noodle dishes. Waits can be extensive, so sit at the bar, reserve ahead or use yelp.com to join the real-time waitlist.

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
