If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.

We only own property to the extent that we can pay the legal taxes that apply to it. Here are the ten most common questions you need to know the answers to if you own or plan to one day own property.

1. How is property tax calculated in California? Annual property taxes will generally be 1% to 1.25% of the home’s sales price at the time of purchase.

2. Can property taxes go up each year? Unfortunately, the answer is yes. In California the maximum property tax increase is 2% of the previous rate.

3. When do I have to pay property taxes? Property taxes are paid twice a year. One is billed in February and is due no later than April 10; the other is billed in November and is due no later than December 10

4. What happens to the tax I already paid this year if I sell my house? This is handled in the closing escrow process. If you have already paid taxes for the past time of your occupancy, the buyer will refund the difference.

5. What is a seized account? If your lender is paying your taxes and insurance as part of your monthly payment and your down payment on the house was less than 20%, they will require you to have what is known as a lien account.

6. I have an impound account: why do I get a refund in some years and a payment increase in others to fund the impound account? Your lender is collecting funds from you to pay your taxes and insurance premiums on your behalf. When your taxes or premiums go up or down, they adjust the amount they charge you.

7. Can I just pay all my property taxes in December? Yes you can, but it may have some tax implications. Check to see if there are any downsides to this in your county.

8. What is Mello-Roos? Mello-Roos is a fund created for builders to borrow to install the necessary infrastructure for a new development: sewer, sidewalks, street lighting, etc. The loans are paid for through your property taxes.

9. How do I know if I am buying a ‘Mello-Roos’ home? The seller is legally obliged to inform you. The tax bill, which is public information, will also include this.

10. How long does Mello-Roos apply to a property? Typically 10-20 years.

This article will discuss the use of a strike motion in an unlawful detainer (eviction) action in the state of California. This type of motion can be filed when a lawsuit requests relief or damages that are not supported by the allegations in the lawsuit, or are not verified as required by law.

The strike motion may request that the entire complaint be removed or only certain parts of it. The Court can only consider the issues that appear on the face of the complaint. As with an objection, no extrinsic evidence is allowed, other than that which can be judicially noted.

Section 436 of the Code of Civil Procedure provides in pertinent part that this motion may be filed to set aside any irrelevant matter inserted in any pleading, and to set aside any pleading or part thereof not made in accordance with the laws of this state.

In the case of a lawsuit for illegal retention, the code establishes that it must be verified by the Plaintiff. If the complaint is not verified, the entire complaint must be set aside because the complaint is not verified as required by section 1166(a)(1) of the Code of Civil Procedure. Therefore, the complaint is not filed in accordance with the laws of this state.

Or if the eviction complaint asks for rent or other damages, but the three-day notice attached to the complaint does not contain a request for rent or other damages, this means the complaint is subject to dismissal.

Many eviction complaints ask for additional legal damages for malicious conduct, but do not alleviate any facts that support a finding of malice. This is clearly subject to a strike motion as several California appellate courts have ruled.

A UD complaint containing a sentence for statutory damages (up to $600, in addition to actual damages) when the complaint does not allege adequate facts to support a determination of “malice” is inappropriate and therefore subject to a motion to dismiss. strike.

A California Court of Appeals has ruled that if a claim of right appears in a complaint that is legally invalid, the complaint is subject to dismissal.

Because the statutes governing unlawful detainers make no provision regarding the timing of a hearing on a strike motion, the timing of strike motions is governed by section 1005 of the Code of Civil Procedure, which requires notice 16 court days from the hearing on the strike motion, plus five calendar days for notice by mail. Court days means Monday through Friday, excluding court holidays. A defendant who wishes to file a motion to strike must contact the court clerk and obtain a hearing date 4-5 weeks from the date of filing, no later than thirty-five (35) calendar days, or the date earliest available to the court clerk. .

Note that some clerks will try to tell you that you must give the same notice as a motion to quash, this is not true. The same minimum notice of 16 court days that is required for a stay is also required for a motion to strike. See Rutter Group Cal. Practical Landlord-Tenant Guide Chapter 8-C 8:255.5 (2012).

Poppies are perfect for your rock garden.

Instead of buying plants, planting a variety of different California poppies from seed can be a great option for your new or existing rock garden because they will germinate into plants very quickly and come back year after year. This saves a great deal of money too. Your Rock Garden will benefit from dwarf poppy varieties that grow close to the ground and produce incredible color that will complement the rocks and taller plants by filling in empty spaces.

Annual and perennial poppy species are available

Poppy seeds are available in a wide variety of types, both annual and perennial. In a rock garden, you may want varieties that can be used for small alpine gardens, or in a large showy feature, you may prefer tall plants with stunning colors. The small colorful flowers will sprout effortlessly between the rocks, like smiles on the faces of the children. They will accent pale rocks with color, seeming to give them a life of their own. In a larger planting around large outcroppings or rock features, choose giant poppies in bright colors to make them look better from a distance.

Lifeless rock garden? Fix it up!

Use glorious California dwarf annual poppy seeds to sow between rocks. They will sprout quickly and grow little tufts of brightly colored faces between the rocks, giving a beautiful contrast to the stones. When making a rock garden for the first time, you’ll be tempted to use other plants that can take several seasons to mature to true beauty, and by all means go ahead, fill your space with a variety of plants, but add the dwarf poppies. quickly bring beauty and provide a continuous flow of beautiful colorful blooms to bridge the gap. Use dwarf Purple Gleam, or the unbeatable Rose Chiffon. The slightly larger flowers of the White Linen Poppy offer a great contrast in size and muted colors in the cooler weather that early spring offers.

Choose from a wide range of beautiful poppies

Whether you’re planting your first rock garden or trying to liven up an older one, California poppies are simply a must-try. Poppy seeds will cost less, are simply easier, and will produce more beauty, much faster than any other flower available. Also consider the perennial alpine poppy in colors of white, salmon, yellow and orange to establish a chorus of color in any garden. Buds that grow 6-8 inches tall are the perfect size for accenting rocks and are ideal for hardiness zones 2-9. They will return each year and brighten up the landscape with their profuse display of bright colors. They bloom constantly throughout the summer, dropping their seeds to produce even more plants the next season, and never seem to die out; a faithful and dependable plant that you will enjoy for years to come.

Poppies can establish quickly

Most of us are eager to see results when we take on any project. Gardens are no exception. We cannot wait several seasons to see the transformation of our landscape. For this reason, including poppies in our planting scheme is an absolute must. Planted from seed they will show beautiful flowers very quickly and will continue to re-seed and renew each year for a continuous display. Give preference to California poppy seeds when planning your rock garden.

So with that being said…

Responding to a complaint alleging alter ego in California is the topic of this article. The pleadings are also known in the legal field as piercing the corporate veil pleadings because they are used to “pierce the corporate veil” and cause a court to ignore the corporate entity, allowing a plaintiff to add an individual person or persons, or even another corporation as a defendant and try to hold them liable for the debts or other liabilities of the parent corporation.

Alter ego charges are typically used against smaller corporations, particularly corporations with only one or two owners. In the author’s experience, many creditors will file a lawsuit with alter ego allegations with little or no evidence to support the claims in the lawsuit in the hope that this will give them some leverage.

A party cannot completely avoid the possibility that someone would seek to hold him personally liable for the debts of a corporation he owns or controls, particularly in California. But they must file an answer to any claim that seeks to impose alter ego liability on them, and be sure to seek damages from the corporation in the answer, and possibly also in a cross-suit, pursuant to Code Section 317 subdivisions aac. of California Corporations, as many, if not most, California corporate statutes allow corporate directors and officers to seek compensation from the corporation to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Anyone responding to an alter ego complaint should include any specific information they have in their affirmative defenses as to why the Court should not deviate from the standard legal doctrine of separate corporate and individual legal identity and existence, as if They didn’t do it personally. guarantee any debt owed to the Claimant, etc. They should also be sure to send specially prepared interrogatories to the claimant asking him to state all the facts that support his alter ego allegations, identify all persons with personal knowledge of those facts and all documents, etc. Also ask to inspect all documents that support your alter ego allegations as well.

Often times, the Plaintiff will respond with a boilerplate response, such as the allegations are made with the advice of counsel, information and beliefs, etc. Submitting additional discovery requests a month or two later to ask if new information has been received that requires additional responses to interrogatories or document requests is a smart move in such situations. This is so because a party who responds that their previous answers are still true and correct basically admits that they have no proof, no facts, no person with personal knowledge, and no documents to support their allegations. In that case, one of the parties might want to consider filing a motion for summary adjudication on the issue of alter ego liability, or perhaps even summary judgment. In the opinion of the author, anyone who responds to a supplemental discovery request that they do NOT have new information, documents, or anything else, is only asking for a motion for adjudication/summary judgment. They should have thought of that before making those accusations without supporting evidence.

The author sincerely hopes that you have enjoyed this article and found it informative.

The term “Bay Area” refers to the San Francisco Bay Area in Northern California. The US Census includes San Francisco, Santa Clara, Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Mateo, Solano, Napa, and Sonoma counties. Ultrasound technicians have the option of working in a large city like San Francisco or in a more rural area like Napa County. California has been a leader in implementing the national health care program, offering tremendous opportunities for future growth in sonographer positions.

Diagnostic Medical Sonography Education in the Bay Area

Some of the best ultrasound tech schools in or near the Bay Area (BA) are in Richmond, which is 17 miles from San Francisco, and Los Altos Hills, which is 39 miles from San Francisco. These are the ideal places to start a search for programs because there are ultrasound schools accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Programs (CAAHEP) in the cities. Accreditation status is an important indication of quality content that prepares students, after completing the training requirements for a sonography diploma or sonography certificate, to take the ARDMS exams and become certified. Every school has a financial aid office that can help students find ultrasound scholarships.

The BA has a driving student population. There are more than 110,000 students attending colleges in Bay Area counties, and enrollment is likely to continue to grow after 2014.

Salary and Job Outlook for Sonographers in the Bay Area

The San Francisco Bay Area is large, incorporating 9 counties and several cities including Santa Rosa, San Francisco, and San Jose. The entire BA pays excellent annual salaries, and several of the Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) and divisions are listed as the highest paying areas as of May 2013 according to the Bureau of Labor.

Average salaries are similar by MSA. For example, the Santa Rosa-Petaluma, CA MSA has a median annual salary of $97,090 or $46.68 per hour for diagnostic medical sonographers. The highest paying area in BA is the San Francisco-San Mateo-Redwood City, CA MSA with average annual wages of $111,700 or $53.70 per hour. All average salaries for sonographers in the Bay Area are close to or above $100,000 or $48.08 per hour.

Projected job growth by county for the 2010-2020 period for sonographers is also excellent, ranging from 27 to 50 percent according to the May 2013 federal occupational survey. Sonographers can expect to find ultrasound jobs in a variety of industries. healthcare settings.

The Channel Islands have the makings of a great national park: jaw-dropping scenery, abundant wildlife and wildflowers, fascinating historical sites, and a sea voyage to boot. Thanks to that incredible landscape and flora and fauna, this national park is also a National Marine Sanctuary. And because you have to take a boat or plane trip to visit these islands, enjoying the park’s attributes is much more of an adventure than a typical national park visit.

One advantage of that limited access is that there is no overcrowding here. Visits in 2012 were only about 250,000 people. That same year, Yosemite had 4 million visitors, about 16 times more. In addition to being a National Park and National Marine Sanctuary, it is also part of the International Man and Biosphere Program. The Channel Islands National Park consists of five islands, four islands that form a chain: San Miguel, Santa Rosa, Santa Cruz and Anacapa; and one separate from the others, Santa Barbara. The mainland of California and the four Channel Islands form the Santa Barbara Channel. Oddly enough, the island called “Santa Barbara” is not part of the Channel that bears that name.

Your starting point should be the park’s visitor center, which is located on the mainland in the city of Ventura. You’ll find exhibits, an indoor tidal pool, maps, books, and a simulated caliche (kah lee chee) ghost forest (more on that later). The telescope at the top of the building allows you to get a closer look at the islands, on a clear day.

Island Packers Company, the park’s concessionaire, adjoins the park’s headquarters in Ventura Harbor. As the name implies, Island Packers is a cargo travel provider, but its beasts of burden are ships. Island Packers guides are wildlife experts. If they see a blue whale or a pod of Pacific white-sided dolphins or a group of seagulls circling and swarming as they cross the Channel, the skipper will head towards them for a closer look. Around the islands, you are likely to see harbor seals, California sea lions, and brown pelicans.

At fourteen miles from Ventura, Anacapa is the closest to the mainland. Anacapa is the smallest of the islands and is made up of three islets, East, Middle, and West Anacapa, the largest of the three. Western Anacapa, protected as a Research Natural Area, is the world’s primary breeding area for the previously endangered brown pelican. Today, the pelican has recovered so well that it was removed from the endangered species list in 2009. Anacapa is also the largest breeding area for the western gull.

The team takes you over Arch Rock, Anacapa’s iconic landmark, to see a popular hauling area for harbor seals. They then circle back to the landing cove at the eastern end of East Anacapa. Guides take passengers to the landing area six by six in boats, where they disembark directly onto a ladder on the pier. A stairway built into the side of a cliff leads 157 steps up to the island’s plateau. A large crane carries supplies for the rangers who live here.

Once in Anacapa, you can hike a 1-mile loop trail to circle the island. Western gulls and common seals are the most frequently seen animals. During the breeding season, seagulls could be seen nesting up the trail. The trail winds through stands of giant coreopsis, or tree sunflower. This 4-foot-tall tree-trunked sunflower grows on all islands and blooms in the spring. The aptly named Inspiration Point, at the western end of the islet, offers breathtaking views of the West Anacapa Peaks and Santa Cruz Island.

The Bureau of Lighthouses, which later became the Coast Guard, has operated a lighthouse in east Anacapa since 1932. It was the last lighthouse permanently built on the west coast. The remains of a series of shipwrecks, mostly before the construction of the lighthouse, but also after, lie scattered around Anacapa and the other Channel Islands. The wreck of the sunken Winfield Scott and other wrecks can be explored by SCUBA divers.

You can camp on Anacapa Island, but in addition to your camping gear, you’ll also need to bring all the water you’ll need. The first residents of the lighthouse had a concrete water catchment basin to channel rain into a cistern to supplement their water supply, but the gulls seemed to like landing here so much that people rarely used the captured water. You can see this basin in the southeastern part of the island, not far from the camp.

The return journey to the mainland is often against the prevailing wind and current, making the journey more rough. For those prone to motion sickness, take Dramamine or Ginger, which may be more effective according to some medical research.

Not including Santa Barbara Island, which is located about 54 miles southeast of Ventura, the Channel Islands can be thought of as the Santa Monica Mountain Range with a coastline. The geologic forces that created the Santa Monica Mountain Range were also at work here. In the geological past, these islands were united into one large island, called Santarosae. With the general warming of the Earth after the Ice Age, rising sea levels drove them apart. Rocky shorelines provide a firm base for algae which in turn form a base for invertebrates, fish, birds and marine mammals.

The islands are a special place to see rare species or relatively common species in greater abundance than usual. The island fox inhabits the largest islands: Santa Cruz, Santa Rosa and San Miguel. It is a domestic cat-sized carnivore related to the mainland gray fox and lives on deer mice. San Miguel is known for having the largest variety of seals and sea lions (pinnipeds, meaning “feather-footed”) that breed on its shores. The California sea lion, Steller sea lion, northern elephant seal, northern fur seal, and harbor seal breed on the island. The Guadalupe fur seal does not breed here, it only visits. Many species of land and sea birds nest on all the islands. In fact, Santa Rosa has a freshwater marsh where blackbirds and other mainland birds nest.

The islands have a rich history. The Chumash, “island people”, inhabited the islands for about 6,000 years. Its signs are found in 3,000 archaeological sites. Artifacts such as shack rubble, piled seashells called middens, and stone tools are evidence of their past. In 1542, when the first European explorer visited this site, there were between 2,000 and 3,000 Chumash. In 1959, Phil Orr discovered a human femur in Arlington Springs on Santa Rosa Island. Using more advanced techniques to age ancient material in 1999, scientists dated the bone at 13,000 years old, making it the oldest known human find in the Americas. This find supports the idea that the first inhabitants of North and South America arrived by boat. The first European to set foot in what is now California, Juan Rodríguez Cabrillo wintered here but died from a fall. Although his grave has never been found, monuments honor him on San Miguel Island and in San Diego.

After the Chumash were transferred to the mainland missions around 1814, the land was owned by a variety of people. At one time, the islands produced cattle, garden crops, and wine, labeled Isla Santa Cruz. Since World War II, the US Navy has used San Miguel Island as a firing range. Today, it is used for missile testing at the Pt. Mugu Air-Naval Missile Test Center.

Although Anacapa is the most common destination, the dealership offers regular trips to the other islands. They also offer sailing excursions aboard a schooner. In 1978, The Nature Conservancy acquired an interest in Santa Cruz Island from the Santa Cruz Island Company. With Island Packers, TNC offers trips to the island from May through November. Trips to San Miguel are planned for the fall. Because this trip is infrequent, you’ll need to make reservations well in advance. There are one and two day trips available. On both trips, you sleep aboard the ship en route, only to wake up in Cuyler Harbor the next morning. Diving these islands is an unforgettable experience, with kelp forests and shipwrecks to explore.

A trip to Channel Islands National Park is much more adventurous than visiting many other national parks. Abundant wildlife, steep cliffs, the journey across the Pacific Ocean from the mainland, unique plant life, and historical artifacts make the experience like visiting another world. The densely populated cities of Southern California are less than a 2 hour drive from Ventura. You have to go there to believe it’s real.

Most of us who live in Southern California are aware that a major earthquake will occur in the next 10 years. We look to the scientist to inform us and prepare for those dreaded earthquakes.

I’d rather not talk about the “big one” that has been expected to happen for decades because these kinds of predictions tend to ignite deeper fears in our already fearsome position in these quake-hit regions. We have heard and read so much about the great earthquake that will surely happen that we have become desensitized.

There are dozens of meanings that one can perceive from a psychic vision. This is why they should be considered hypothetical in nature, worthy of study and reference but not taken as verifiable. However, psychic visions of an apocalyptic earthquake in Southern California are being predicted by reputable psychics far too often to ignore and remind people of the very real seismic dangers in the region.

Although I predicted a major earthquake this year in my 2009 Psychic Predictions, the big one is a year or two away. I still see the year 2011 as a pulsating animation within visions of great earth changes in my home state of California. It could be argued that perceived dates in months or years are of limited value in forecasting time because we psychics move our consciousness over large periods of time and cover wide areas of places and events. On the other hand, the numbers 2011 are an important part of the psychic vision.

Earthquake-stricken fault zones are located throughout California, but the areas in my vision move in the regions of Southern California, from outside San Diego, the deserts, off the coast of Long Beach counties, Los Angeles, San Bernardino and Riverside. The magnitude does not seem as significant as the amount of confusion in the collapse and destruction of buildings, structures, moving vehicles, and machinery.

Earthquake preparedness may be a mundane topic every year, but how many of us are prepared? Contact the national CDC for information on surviving earthquakes and disasters, the more you educate yourself, the better prepared you will be, and you just might save someone else’s life too.

There is often a lot of confusion about what all the accounting qualifications and abbreviations mean, from CA to ACCA, it’s no wonder people get confused. One of the main factors influencing these abbreviations may be the origin of the person or institution that owns them. For example, ICAS (Institute of Chartered Accountants of Scotland) was the first institute to adopt the phrase chartered accountant with the designative abbreviation CA. One of the other big accountancy institutes in the UK is ACCA, which stands for Association of Chartered Certified Accountants. The phrase registered account and the abbreviation CA are favorably based on the UK. However, in the United States, the CPA (Certified Public Accountant) qualification and abbreviation is the most prominent. There are also additional terms like CMA, which stands for Certified Management Accountant, which is a more universal term.

The key differentiating factor between these two types of qualifications is the criteria they cover, particularly for institutes and their entrance exam. For example, the ACCA divides its exams and qualifications into two key areas, fundamentals and professional. When broken down, it covers applicants’ skills and knowledge base and essential career elements and options. In contrast, the AICPA (American Institute of Certified Public Accountants) divides their qualifications into 4 key areas. These cover audit and attestation, business environment and concepts, accounting and financial reporting, and regulation. From this it can be seen that the CPA rating is much broader in contrast to the CA rating which is more specific. Most of these institutes have been around since the 1800s and their influences have helped shape today’s industry through the introduction of new qualifications and diplomas. It has been the influence of the institutes that has also supported the drive towards demand for a more multidisciplinary accounting skills base. This has been achieved through its collaboration with other financial institutes such as Scottish Investment Operations and the Chartered Institute of Bankers Scotland to develop qualifications such as the Diploma in Investment Accounting. However, choosing which qualification is best for you is often very unique to you as an individual and your intended career path, as well as your destiny. For example, you would look at getting a CPA qualification if you were intending to move to the US, even if you currently live and work in the UK where CA is the predominant qualification, but ultimately sadly there isn’t one. correct or incorrect answer.

In the fall of 2010, New York passed the first bill of rights for domestic workers, giving domestic workers the same benefits and rights that many other workers have had for years. Passage of this law marked a major victory for domestic worker rights activists and may have paved the way for one of California’s newer labor laws now under consideration. Although the bill has yet to be officially introduced in the state legislation process, there is a growing movement in the state to support it.

California employment laws have long been known to favor employees, often providing them with more benefits and flexibility than other states. Consider the California Family Rights Act, which, among other things, gives employees more lenient leave provisions than the Family and Medical Leave Act. So it’s no surprise that the state was quick to follow New York’s footsteps in its work to give domestic workers strong rights and protections.

So what exactly are the legal aspects of the proposed bill of rights? Well, those activists and labor rights groups that lobby for such legislation appear to have largely modeled it on current New York law. The campaign for the California bill recommends some very basic but essential rights for these workers.

1. The right to cook their own food and receive at least five hours of uninterrupted sleep. These rights are important because many workers live in their workplace, and because of this, some have lost the ability to make decisions for themselves regarding these basic human functions.
2. Another right on the list is the right to receive paid sick and vacation leave, as well as overtime pay. This right aligns with most rights other employees receive. Domestic workers are especially abused with regard to overtime pay, with many working more than forty hours a week for standard rates.
3. Finally, the right to a three week notice prior to termination is included in this bill to protect your source of income and your home. Because many workers live where they work, a sudden layoff could also take away their shelter. This protection would allow them some time to look for other places to live and other jobs.

These are just a few of the key rights listed in the proposed bill; to see all the proposed rights, see the National Domestic Workers Alliance’s campaign for the bill.

The legal consequences of this would essentially force employers of domestic workers to respect these rights or else face lawsuits from employees whose rights were infringed. However, despite the typically one-sided employee labor laws in California, it is not yet known whether or not this law will actually make it through the legislative process. Therefore, there could still be a long way to go for its defenders.
