Mrs. Carvajal Monge was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis ("MS") approximately 12 years ago and should be classified as disabled under the FEHA and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended (#ADA), due to the affects the #MS has had on her.

The Complaint alleges that MUSD: (1) failed to engage in a good faith interactive process with Mrs. Carvajal Monge regarding her #MS; (2) failed to provide a reasonable accommodation for Mrs. Carvajal Monge; (3) discriminated against and subjected Mrs. Carvajal Monge to a hostile work environment because of her MS; and (4) retaliated against Mrs. Carvajal Monge because she reported to MUSD that it was not accommodating her disability.

October 29, 2020: U.S. Department of Justice: The agreement resolves allegations brought by the former head of quality control at Guild Mortgage Company, Kevin Dougherty, under the qui tam, or #whistleblower, provisions of the False Claims Act, which permit private parties to sue on behalf of the government for false claims and to receive a share of any recovery.

2020 has been a difficult year for many of us, but through it all your support remained.

October 27, 2020 On October 26 2020 as a member of the Federal Bar Association's (#FBA) Qui Tam Section attended by Zoom Part II of the FBA's Qui Tam Section's webinar "How U.S. Attorney's Offices and 'Main Justice' Cooperate on #FCA Cases". It was an excellent program and thank you to the FBA's R. Scott Oswald for putting on these False Claims Act Qui Tam events and for the attendees, including U.S. Department of Justice's (#DOJ) prosecutors, and Assistant U.S. Attorneys (A...USA) from the U.S. Attorney's Office who often volunteer their time as presenters. Description HOW U.S. ATTORNEY'S OFFICES AND 'MAIN JUSTICE' COOPERATE ON FCA CASES And Best Practices for Working with Both ---------- An FBA Qui Tam Section Zoom Roundtable ---------- *** OCTOBER 26, 2020 | 12:30pm ET *** The False Claims Act calls for qui tam complaints and written disclosures to be served on the U.S. Attorney for the judicial district where the qui tam is filed *and also* on the Attorney General of the United States. How do these two government offices divide the ensuing labor and how can FCA practitioners approach each office most effectively? Specifically, who calls the shots for cases of various sizes and types: The local prosecutor or the Civil Fraud Section at the U.S. Department of Justice? Who takes the lead on the investigation, in settlement talks, and during litigation? Should attorneys for relators and defendants focus on a single point-of-contact for the case as a whole, or deal with each office separately? This Zoom Roundtable will offer an insider's look at the day-to-day partnership between AUSAs and "Main Justice" and where savvy counsel should focus their efforts at each stage of an FCA case. All of our distinguished panelists have served in a U.S. Attorney's Office, at Main Justice, or both. This event is organized by the Qui Tam Section of the Federal Bar Association. ** OPENING REMARKS ** R. Scott Oswald Managing Principal, The Employment Law Group, P.C.
