June 7 edition

Good morning. 

Thank you for reading Inland Empire Law Weekly’s first Sunday publication. Your early subscription gives validation to my efforts. Every week, your subscription will get you access to locally reported articles on the San Bernardino and Riverside superior court systems. 

I intend for this publication to be updated once a week, on Sunday mornings. 

• Today, we start with the April 11 swearing-in ceremony news of San Bernardino Superior Judge Dina Amani. “You exemplify everything in a judicial officer that the court could ask for,” San Bernardino Superior Commissioner Shannon Suber told Amani.

• From there, we go to the State Assembly’s effort to reform wage theft judgment enforcement. Seventy-two percent of wage theft judgments are not fulfilled, according to the state auditor.
• In Sacramento, Sen. Sabrina Cervantes (D-Riverside) was accused of, and then vindicated of, driving under the influence.  

• A San Bernardino jury came to a $110 million verdict against the state.
• Essayli charged a Yucca Valley man with making death threats against President Donald Trump.
• The 9th Circuit upheld a negligence verdict in a wrongful death case against Riverside County sheriff's deputies.
• The California Supreme court will review a Riverside case to decide whether cases that are voluntarily dismissed can be appealed.
• The Court of Appeal upheld the eviction of hangar rental company Coyote Aviation eviction from the Redlands Municipal Airport.

• Local attorney Sam Price has guidance for probate attorneys on imminent mandatory eFiling requirements in San Bernardino Superior Court.
• California’s tariff lawsuit is heading to the 9th Circuit. 
• See all the other lawsuits California filed against the federal government here.
• We also have a roundup of recently filed federal cases in the California Central District. Read it here.

That’s all I have for you this morning. If you’d like to reach out, please email me at editor@ielaw.news. Alternately, fill out this Google Form.
