Our audio edition runs through the headlines we publish each week. You can find it on Spotify or Apple Podcasts.\n\n* * *\n\n### Prosecutor joins Riverside bench\n\nThanh Ngo | Courtesy Governor's Office\n\nThanh Ngo took his oath of office to join Riverside County's judicial officers on March. 6.\n\nThe former Riverside prosecutor joined the DA's Office in 2023. Ngo's been around the state: he spent one year as field counsel for Liberty Mutual Insurance, one year as assessment appeal policy director in Alameda County, six years as a trial attorney at TDN Law Group, seven years at the Santa Clara District Attorney's Office, four years at the Santa Cruz District Attorney's Office, one year as an associate at Terra Law, four years at the San Francisco District Attorney's Office, and two years as an Echoing Green fellow at the Asian Law Caucus. He graduated from the University of California Los Angeles, School of Law. He fills the vacancy created by Judge Kira Klatchko's retirement.\n\n* * *\n\n### Coyote Aviation suit is clear for April trial\n\nCoyote's attorney, _Ricky Shah of Pacheco and Neach_ , spoke to roughly 60 Coyote Aviation supporters following the hearing in the San Bernardino Justice Center.\n\nThe suit alleging the City of Redlands illegally seized ownership of Coyote Aviation's hangars at the Redlands Municipal Airport is one step closer to trial.\n\nBoth Coyote and Redlands had asked San Bernardino Superior Judge Nicole Quintana Winter to decide the case in their favor on March 3, and both Coyote and Redlands were denied their request. Winter threw out Coyote's claim that Redlands intentionally inflicted emotional distress, but otherwise kept the case intact.\n\nThe company has already been evicted from the Redlands Municipal Airport, and lost a prior case alleging breach of contract regarding the ground lease. In this case, Coyote claims the city illegally seized control of the 16 hangars which the company built.\n\nThe terms of the lease between the city and the company say that when Coyote Aviation would leave the airport, it would remove all improvements. Redlands claimed that, since the hangars were not demolished, Coyote forfeited ownership.\n\nCoyote did attempt to demolish the hangars—but Redlands would not approve the demolition permit.\n\nAccording to attorney Jessica Lomakin, who represented the city at the March 3 hearing, the city did not approve Coyote's permit because the city did not recognize Coyote as the property owner. Redlands recognized Redlands to be the owner.\n\n\"So the city denied the permit because the city didn't sign it?\" Winter asked. \"Why did the city, when it had the permit, not the permit?\"\n\nLomakin said that the city had concerns about...\n\n* * *\n\n### Man pleads guilty to threats against Sheriff Dicus\n\nA 45-year-old transient, Mark Lee Keller, pled guilty to one count of attempted criminal threats on March 5 after mailing threats to San Bernardino Sheriff Shannon Dicus.\n\nKeller, who had already been in custody on a charge of failure to obey a police officer, received 376 days for time served and was released. He is under county supervision. A second felony charge of criminal threats and his misdemeanor charge of failure to obey were both dropped due to his plea agreement.\n\n“Law enforcement regularly encounters people who clearly need treatment and support, yet the current system often leaves limited options to ensure they receive help before situations escalate. I will continue to work with fellow sheriffs, the Board of Supervisors, and the Legislature to address these challenges,” said Dicus in a release.\n\n* * *\n\n### Riverside man loses appeal in malicious prosecution case \n\nRoger Parker, held in pre-trial custody without an indictment or preliminary hearing for four years against the advice of line prosecutors, lost the appeal of his malicious prosecution case on March 5. In an unanimous ruling, three Ninth Circuit Judges affirmed a lower court's ruling that the defendants are protected by law. None of the defendants are still at the Riverside District Attorney's Office.\n\n\"The district court correctly concluded that absolute immunity shields (the defendants) from liability for Parker’s prolonged pre-trial detention,\" the court found.\n\nParker was held on a murder charge from 2010 until 2014, but the two Riverside line prosecutors who were assigned the case, Lisa DiMaria and Christopher Ross, believed he was innocent.\n\nThe trial court found, and the Court of Appeal agreed, that the defendants were ...\n\n* * *\n\n### Riverside District Attorney names top employees\n\nDistrict Attorney Michael Hestrin with Prosecutor of the Year, Jennifer Stevenson | Courtesy: DA's Office\n\nThe top employees of the Riverside District Attorney's Office were honored at the Green River Golf Club in Corona on Feb. 27.\n\nJennifer Stevenson was named prosecutor of the year.\n\n“Each day, the dedicated professionals of the District Attorney’s Office work tirelessly to pursue justice on behalf of the victims we serve across Riverside County,” said District Attorney Mike Hestrin. “The recipients of this year’s Justice Awards represent the very best of our office. Their integrity, commitment, and excellence make a meaningful difference in the safety and well-being of our community.”\n\nRead the full list of top employees.\n\n* * *\n\n### Mock trial team start-up information to be shared at SB County session\n\nAttorneys and teachers who are interested in starting a high school mock trial team in San Bernardino County can attend a 30-minute informational session that starts at 4 p.m., April 23.\n\nThe event is hosted by the San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools, which runs the county's mock trial program under the guidelines of Teach Democracy.\n\nSign up here\n\n* * *\n\n### Local news from local sources\n\nRiverside Begins Search For City’s First Inspector General // Riverside Record\n\nSan Bernardino Councilmember Treasure Ortiz gets ‘cease and desist’ letter from city // The Press-Enterprise\n\n* * *\n\n## California news\n\nResistance state: Tracking California’s lawsuits against the new Trump administrationThis story was originally published by CalMatters.

These orders include revoking licenses for offshoreInland Empire Law WeeklyCalMatters Staff\n\n* * *\n\n### State's code website resumes blocking search engines\n\nThe California Legislative Information website has restored its direction for Google to not index the site.\n\nThe site, known as LegInfo, is operated by a public agency, the Office of Legislative Counsel (OLC). The agency is legally required to publish the state's bills and laws in in a way that would \"provide the greatest feasible access to the general public in this state.\"\n\nSince 2022, the Office of Legislative Counsel blocked Google, and other search engines, from indexing the site. As a result, the LegInfo site has dropped lower in search results. causing web searches for laws and bills to land on privately owned webpages.\n\nInland Empire Law Weekly contacted the OLC in August about the block. The OLC said that the block was irrelevant to the site being indexed. The OLC later retracted that claim, and said that the site has poor performance when Google indexes it.\n\nInland Empire Law Weekly told the OLC on Feb. 12 that it would be publishing an article on the decision to block Google. The office unblocked the search engine.\n\nSome time between Feb. 18 and March 2, the OLC again blocked Google from indexing the site.\n\nWhen asked, the OLC said Google negatively affected the website.\n\n\"As Google began indexing the site, the website began experienced very high traffic impacting the performance for all users,\" the email said.\n\n* * *\n\n### Newsom threatens California counties for failing to use his new mental health court\n\nFrustrated by the slow adoption of one of his signature efforts to get Californians with severe mental illness off the streets, Gov. Gavin Newsom on Monday threatened to take funding from counties he said aren’t doing enough.\n\nNewsom called out 10 counties that he said are underperforming when it comes to CARE Court – a program he launched in 2023 that uses the courts to get people into mental health treatment. Counties that “haven’t gotten it done” in his view are: Los Angeles, Orange, San Francisco, Santa Clara, San Bernardino, Kern, Riverside, Yolo, Monterey and Fresno.\n\nCARE Court has served far fewer Californians than initially anticipated...\n\n* * *\n\n### California lawsuit asks judge to halt billions for school repairs until state commits to grant it equitably\n\nAttorneys for parents and students in school districts with unsafe, unhealthy and inadequate facilities that say they can’t afford to fix asked the Alameda County Superior Court on Friday to freeze $3 billion in state funding for building repairs until the court has ruled on their lawsuit challenging the state’s funding system.\n\nPlaintiffs from San Bernardino City Unified, Coachella Valley Unified and other districts argue that the state formula illegally favors wealthy school districts.\n\n“Our students in rural schools deserve a chance...\n\n* * *\n\n### Thurmond calls for return of 6-year-old California deaf student deported to Colombia\n\nBy Zaidee Stavely, EdSource\n\nState Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Thurmond condemned the federal government on Friday for detaining and deporting a 6-year-old deaf child without the devices he uses for hearing.\n\nThurmond said the deportation cuts off the child’s access to crucial educational services. He was a student at the California School for the Deaf in Fremont. Thurmond pointed out that schools for the deaf provide children with a community and the ability to communicate that they may not otherwise receive.\n\n“We’re demanding his return, because there aren’t many programs that can meet his needs as a student who is deaf, who needs to be in a community where he can be surrounded by individuals who are trained in American Sign Language,” Thurmond said.\n\nNikolas De Bremaeker, the family’s attorney from the Oakland-based organization Centro Legal de la Raza, said the child’s mother, who is from Colombia, had been in the country for about four years and had an active asylum case. She and her children were detained while attending a routine immigration appointment.\n\nDe Bremaeker said that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials did not allow a family member to bring the child’s hearing aids. In addition, he said that ICE officials misled attorneys about where the child and his mother were being held. He confirmed on Friday that they had been deported to Colombia.\n\nICE did not respond to a request for comment.\n\n* * *\n\n### California, 23 other states sue Trump over new tariffs\n\nCalifornia and 23 other mostly Democratic states on Thursday sued the Trump administration over its new justification for the president’s wide-ranging tariffs.\n\nState Attorney General Rob Bonta is co-leading the lawsuit with the attorneys general of Oregon, Arizona and New York. They say President Donald Trump’s use of Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 — which he invoked after the U.S. Supreme Court on Feb. 20 ruled that his use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act was unconstitutional — is also illegal.\n\nTrump immediately issued 10% tariffs across the board after the Supreme Court ruling that struck down most of the tariffs he imposed last year.\n\n“He’s desperately grasping at straws,” Bonta said...\n\n* * *\n\n### Supreme Court order puts California schools in legal limbo over transgender student privacy\n\nThe U.S. Supreme Court’s decision this week to reinstate parents’ right to be notified of their child’s gender identity has left California schools in temporary legal limbo and advocates concerned for the safety of transgender students.\n\nIn a 6-3 vote, the Supreme Court granted an emergency appeal to a conservative legal group and reinstated a San Diego federal judge’s ruling that parents have a constitutional right to be informed of a child’s “gender incongruence” at school. The Supreme Court stated that California’s student privacy policies allow schools to “facilitate” a student’s gender transition without parental notification, violating free religious expression and substantive due process.\n\nJustices did not decide the Mirabelli v. Bonta case; instead, they...\n\n* * *\n\n### She directed $2.7 million from her elderly clients to her husband’s company. The judge approved every penny\n\nDeep within the drab courthouse across from Oxnard’s agricultural fields, Angelique Friend is one of the county’s main private fiduciaries, chosen frequently by a probate judge to handle the financial and personal interests of elderly people deemed too ill to care for themselves.\n\nFriend operated a unique system. Besides being paid for her services, she often chose her husband, David Esquibias, to be her lawyer. Then, when her clients needed in-home support, she hired Townsgate In-Home Services to provide their care. Friend knew Townsgate well: Esquibias founded it the year they married.\n\nFriend’s elderly clients often footed the bill for all three services, at least until they could no longer afford or use in-home health care. Then, with the court’s approval, Friend moved them to less-expensive care facilities and sold their homes, court records show. For years, Friend and Esquibias often disclosed their connections to the court, and Judge Roger Lund approved the payments, even though court rules and the California Professional Fiduciary Bureau’s code of conduct generally prohibit such conflicts.\n\nCourt records show...\n\n* * *\n\n### News from around the state\n\nMan sentenced to 7 years for threatening judge // MyNewsLA\n\nLawyer at Tom Girardi's firm pleads guilty to contempt in client funds case // Reuters\n\nFormer Lodi City Council Member Shakir Khan sentenced for 2020 election fraud scheme // KCRA\n\n* * *\n\n## National news\n\n* * *\n\n### Footage shows the run-up to immigration officer’s fatal shooting of Texas man\n\nSouth Padre Island Police Department body cam footage, released by Texas Department of Public Safety late Friday, shows the moment when 23-year-old Ruben Ray Martinez from San Antonio was killed at South Padre Island in March 2025. South Padre Island Police Department\n\nThe Texas Department of Public Safety late Friday quietly released body camera and security footage from a case in which federal immigration officers in South Padre Island last year shot and killed a 23-year-old San Antonio man. The video shows him driving slowly past officers stopping traffic, and at times interacting with them while his brake lights are on, before gunshots suddenly ring out.\n\nThe clips, which were reviewed by The Texas Tribune, do not show Ruben Ray Martinez hitting the Department of Homeland Security Investigations agent with his car, as the agency has repeatedly claimed. But they also do not provide clear evidence that he did not. The footage is from multiple vantage points and doesn't show everything – in some cases, key audio is missing. The federal agent in question was not wearing a body camera.\n\nRead more\n\n* * *\n\n### How Instagram addictiveness lawsuit could reshape social media – platform design meets product liability\n\nBy Carolina Rossini, UMass Amherst professor\n\nA Los Angeles courtroom is hosting what may become the most consequential legal challenge Big Tech has ever faced.\n\nThis is an inflection point in the global debate over Big Tech liability: For the first time, an American jury is being asked to decide whether platform design itself can give rise to product liability – not because of what users post on them, but because of how they were built.\n\nAs a technology policy and law scholar, I believe that the decision, whatever the outcome, will likely generate a powerful domino effect in the United States and across jurisdictions worldwide.\n\nThe plaintiff is a 20-year-old California woman...\n\n* * *\n\n### Kristi Noem out as DHS secretary; Trump to nominate Oklahoma Sen. Mullin\n\nWASHINGTON — President Donald Trump Thursday said Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem will be leaving the post for a job as a special envoy, following an appearance before a U.S. Senate panel this week that provoked bipartisan criticism of her handling of the department that is tasked with fulfilling the administration’s mass deportation campaign.\n\nOklahoma GOP Sen. Markwayne Mullin, a Trump loyalist who has championed the president’s war against Iran, will lead the Department of Homeland Security, the president wrote on his social media site, TruthSocial.\n\nThe Wall Street Journal reported earlier Thursday that Trump was planning to fire Noem after...\n\n* * *\n\n### Judge blocks Noem policy limiting congressional visits to immigrant detention facilities\n\nWASHINGTON — A federal judge Monday temporarily blocked a Department of Homeland Security policy that instituted a seven-day notice requirement for members of Congress to conduct oversight visits at facilities that hold immigrants, finding it likely violates appropriations law that allows for unannounced visits.\n\nThe order rejects initial arguments from the Trump administration that...\n\n* * *\n\n### US House also rejects restraint on Trump’s war power in Iran\n\nWASHINGTON — House Republicans and a handful of Democrats followed the Senate in blocking a measure Thursday to stop President Donald Trump from furthering the war in Iran without authorization from Congress.\n\nThe joint war with Israel that began six days ago has already claimed the lives of six U.S. troops and injured and killed dozens of civilians across Israel and the Persian Gulf nations. Iranian officials say more than 1,000 have been killed since Saturday, according to multiple reports.\n\nThe War Powers Resolution sponsored by Reps. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., and Thomas Massie, R-Ky., failed in a 212-219 vote. Massie was the lone Republican to sign on to the measure.\n\nMassie and Rep. Warren Davidson, R-Ohio, broke ranks with Republicans ...\n\n* * *\n\n### Sen. Mark Kelly lawsuit in illegal orders case set for May arguments in appeals court\n\nWASHINGTON — A federal circuit court announced Monday it will hold oral arguments in May to determine whether a lower court erred when it blocked the Pentagon from downgrading Arizona Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly’s retirement rank and pay for appearing in the “Don’t Give Up The Ship” video.\n\nThe U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit’s new schedule came just days after the Trump administration requested an expedited timeline.\n\n“In light of the public’s unusual interest in prompt disposition of this appeal,\n\n* * *\n\n### News from around the nation\n\nHigh-stakes First Amendment suit against the Pentagon heads to court // MSNOW\n\nJudge Blocks Trump Anti-DEI Directive in Schools Nationwide // Word In Black\n\nJudge says Kari Lake’s tenure atop US media agency was improper, voids actions as ‘acting CEO’ // Politico\n\nProPublica Wins Lawsuit Over Access to Court Records in U.S. Navy Cases // ProPublica\n\nSupreme Court weighs whether smoking weed can eliminate your right to a gun // The Washington Post\n\nJustice Department reverses course and now intends to defend Trump's executive orders targeting law firms // CBS News\n\nJustice Department targets Cuban officials, aims for indictments // The Washington Post\n\nIn reversal, Florida Bar says it is not investigating Trump loyalist Lindsey Halligan // NBC News\n\n\n\n* * *\n\n## In perspective\n\n* * *\n\n### The Declaration of Independence: \n\nThe tarring of John Malcolm\n\nInland Empire Law Weekly is analyzing each of the 27 reasons for independence as laid out in the Declaration of Independence. Today's reason has to do with taxes:\n\n**_\"He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people and eat out their substance.\"_**\n\nThis seems simple enough. Finally, after this publication has reported that America's independence was due to the relocation of the Massachusetts Colonial Assembly, or the salary of judges or immigration, we're back to the old question of taxation, which we all know and hate.\n\nUnfortunately, there's a bit more to this complaint than just the hiring of tax collectors. The conduct of the crown's officers rose to the point of being _harassing our people_. Some examples:\n\nOn June 10, 1768, customs officials seized John Hancock's ship, _Liberty,_ after concluding that Hancock evaded his customs taxes by offloading imported goods before inspection. The seizure caused 3,000 colonists to riot. The crown brought, then dropped, charges.\n\nOn March 5, 1770, British customs officer Ebenezer Richardson fired into a crowd, killing 11-year-old Christopher Seider. Protests over this death would result in the Boston Massacre.\n\nOn Jan. 25, 1774, customs officer John Malcolm was threatening to beat a boy with his cane. George Hewes, who had participated in the Boston Tea Party a month earlier, told Malcolm to stop. Malcolm struck Hewes in the head with his cane, knocking Hewes out. (In, response the patriots tarred and feathered Malcolm.)\n\nIn the 1774 Petition to the King, the First Continental Congress complained about customs officers being allowed to break open and enter houses without a judicial warrant.\n\nIn each of these cases, the customs officers harassed colonists by interfering with them before a judge got involved.\n\nFind the other reasons for independence:\n\n* * *\n\n## Reading\n\nEvery week, Inland Empire Law Weekly recommends a book. This week's selection is Justice in Plain Sight by Riverside's own Dan Bernstein. The book deals with the prosecution of the 1980 Norco shootout and the Press-Enterprise's fight for a public trial that went all the way the Supreme Court.\n\n_Justice in Plain Sight is the story of a hometown newspaper in Riverside, California, that set out to do its job: tell readers about shocking crimes in their own backyard. But when judges slammed the courtroom door on the public, including the press, it became impossible to tell the whole story. Pinning its hopes on business lawyer Jim Ward, whom Press-Enterprise editor Tim Hays had come to know and trust, the newspaper took two cases to the U.S. Supreme Court in the 1980s. Hays was convinced that the public—including the press—needed to have these rights and needed to bear witness to justice because healing in the aftermath of a horrible crime could not occur without community catharsis. The newspaper won both cases and established First Amendment rights that significantly broadened public access to the judicial system, including the right for the public to witness jury selection and preliminary hearings._\n\n$20 from University of Nebraska Press\n\n* * *\n\n## This day in history\n\nOn March 8, 1948, Justice Hugo Black published a ruling about the importance of public trials:\n\n\"The traditional Anglo-American distrust for secret trials has been variously ascribed to the notorious use of this practice by the Spanish Inquisition, to the excesses of the English Court of Star Chamber, and to the French monarchy’s abuse of the lettre de cachet.\n\n\"All of these institutions obviously symbolized a menace to liberty. In the hands of despotic groups each of them had become an instrument for the suppression of political and religious heresies in ruthless disregard of the right of an accused to a fair trial.\n\n\"Whatever other benefits the guarantee to an accused that his trial be conducted in public may confer upon our society, the guarantee has always been recognized as a safeguard against any attempt to employ our courts as instruments of persecution. The knowledge that every criminal trial is subject to contemporaneous review in the forum of public opinion is an effective restraint on possible abuse of judicial power.\"",
