California Bans Deficiency Judgments In Short...
If Governor Schwarzenegger signs SB 931 before September 30, 2010, it will add section 580e to the Code of Civil Procedure which will prohibit first mortgage holders from seeking a deficiency judgment in any transaction where they have provided written consent to a short sale. This would add significant protections to California's current anti-deficiency laws (e.g. CCP 726, 580d and 580b) when dealing with short sale transactions. This new law would provide far more relevant protections for borrowers seeking a short sale than the protections promised by another law awaiting the Governor's signature, SB 1178. As I stated in a prior post, SB 1178 would expand the purchase-money protections of CCP 580b...
There are several bail bond companies in California. All these agencies are licensed by the California Department of Insurance. If you look in your local California phone book under "bail bonds" you will see that these companies have a license number located on their advertisement. To see the license status you can go to the web site insurance.ca.gov and put this number in the license look-up section. Due to the rules and regulations of the California Department of Insurance (CADOI) all bail bond companies in California must charge a 10% or an 8% premium for your bail bond.

California Bar Exam Preparation
The California Bar Exam is considered by many to be the toughest bar exam in the nation. Although this may seem obvious, the California Bar Exam is administered to all bar examinees in all the locations in which the exam is administered. So the examinees in Los Angeles will be given the same exact exam as those in Sacramento. One of the reasons is that it is a three day exam, whereas many other states have only two day exams. And historically, the pass rate hovers around 50% in July and dips down to around 40% in February. (February is usually when the repeat examinees take the exam, although many evening students take their first exam in February). The toughest part of the exam is the substantive...

In order to achieve success in the foreclosure niche, investors must become educated about the California real estate market and real estate laws. This is of particular importance for investors who purchase foreclosure homes for use as rental properties or to offer creative financing...

Expansion Of California's Purchase Money...
The California Association of REALTORS (C.A.R.) declared "victory" upon the Senate passage of SB 1178 on June 3, 2010 (the bill now moves to the Assembly for approval). Should this bill become law, California real estate agents should be cautioned to read the legislation very carefully because the protections afforded will be very narrow in scope. We already know that California Code of Civil Procedure (CCP) Section 580b prohibits a lender from seeking a deficiency judgment after the foreclosure on a "purchase money" loan. A purchase money loan is a loan that was used to acquire an owner-occupied residence. Most borrowers do not understand that when they refinance a purchase money loan, even if just...
California SR22 Insurance
A California SR22 insurance policy is a type of auto insurance policy required for California drivers after a DUI related offense by the DMV and the courts. In California it is required for a minimum of 3 years after a drunk driving conviction. The SR22 policy serves as an agreement between the California Department of Motor Vehicles and the SR22 provider that requires the insurance company to immediately notify the CA DMV should the insurance company not be providing insurance for the driver anymore. This could be due to several reasons: 1. A lapse in coverage. Your California SR22 insurance policy could lapse due to missing a payment or even just being late making a payment. 2. Termination of...
What Does California Law Say About Non-Profit...
How can we account for what is perhaps one of the most dramatic legal disparities in medical cannabis to date? The issue of non-profit "sale" of medical cannabis to qualified patients via collectives and cooperatives. There's nothing else like this dispute. What do the experts say about this anyway? Steve Cooley, The Los Angeles District Attorney, disagrees with Jerry Brown, the California State Attorney General. How could two prominent state-employed attorneys come to wholly different conclusions on the answer? First the Los Angeles District Attorney claims "all sales are illegal". The California State Attorney General was sure enough to write in his guidelines that "storefront collectives may be...
By approval Notice dated March 23, 2010, the California Service Center treated a Filipino appeal to the Administrative Appeal Office (AAO) filed by this Author, as a second motion for reconsideration, and granted the request for extension of H-1B stay from 09/25/2009 until 09/24/2012, per issued Form I-94 (Departure Record).

But the concurrent request of extension of H-1B stay of the Filipino network and computer systems administrator was denied by the December 01, 2009 Decision of the California Service...
Child Support Vs. Spousal Support: New...
A new California divorce law allows a spouse receiving income from child support to seek an increase in his or her spousal support upon the maturity of the minor child. This law, (Family Code §4326), which is set to terminate on January 1, 2011, considers the loss of child support income incurred by a parent when the child becomes no longer eligible for support, (e.g. reaches the age of 18 or graduates high school) to be a “change in circumstances” substantial enough to justify a request to modify their spousal support. This new law presents a departure from prior court rulings. In a 1999 case, In re Marriage of Lautsbaugh (1999) 72 Cal.App.4th 1131, 85 Cal.Rptr.2d 688, a California Appeals...

California Registration Requirements For...
The question of California registration comes up often when foreign limited liability companies are used as holding companies for California legal entities, or own passive assets in California like bank accounts and non-income producing real estate. In publication 3556, and in practice, the FTB has adopted a position that virtually every foreign limited liability company, especially one with a California resident manager or managing members should register with California and pay California taxes. The FTB, again, is wrong. California's jurisdiction to require an out-of-state limited liability company to register as foreign limited liability company with the State of California is limited by the Due...
California Patent Infringement Laws: A Review
Patent laws vary by state. Although there are federal ones, there are also state patent laws, and each state carries its own set determining factors for various forms of patent infringement. California patent laws vary from laws regarding patent infringement in New York by quite a bit. It is always best, and typically the only legal option, to choose a lawyer that actively practices patent infringement in the state which the incident took place. California laws aren't any less restrictive than other states, per se, but all states have their downfalls. When reviewing California laws, the average individual needs to keep in mind that California laws are not always static. Just like all state laws...
Surfing and Camping in California
Camping in California just goes with surfing. How else could most surfers afford a weekend in Big Sur? I know I can't afford a spa. I've camped many times in places where I could surf. Though there weren't always waves, there was always a fire and some hot dogs. Like with any planned vacation, it can be tough coordinating a swell with reserving a spot. When I finally know some decent surf is on the way, many sites are already booked. Despite this, windows of opportunity pop up and we've gotten a campsite even after being informed by the computer/telephone/Internet/ signs that the place was full. It's often worth the risk to go for it and hope something's available. Just be sure to have a backup plan...
On April 12th, 2010 the state of California passed an extension for the Mortgage Relief Act of 2009. This extension carries this relief act through 2012. This presents an opportunity for more California residents to take advantage of the tax breaks granted by this act. The housing market crisis has been exceptionally hard on California residents. California has one of the highest foreclosure rates in the country. This is bad enough on residents of the state, but California income tax laws have only added to the problem. That is where the Mortgage Relief Act comes in. Any debt that was removed through a foreclosure, short sale, or mortgage restructure was previously taxable as income in the state of...

There's no doubt about it that some of the best fly fishing in California is located in the northern part of the state. The Sierra Mountains provide some great scenery as well as some great rivers and streams where the fish are plentiful and the weather is great.
