2018 was a year of many legal changes and challenges. We saw amended laws and changes to legal procedure which directly effect the way we police. We experienced challenge after challenge to how we view protected activities, and saw many victories for both the public and police.
For 2019, we are focusing on training to ensure proper administration of justice and rights in our daily routines. We will be focusing specifically with labor law, protected activities, solicitors, immigration protests, and First Amendment audits. The first step in protecting yourself and your agency in knowledge and proper application of laws.
Instruction will be provided by Lieutenant Shawn Freeman of the Redondo Beach Police Department, Sergeant Ryan Brett of the Corona Police Department, and other guests speakers related to labor and union groups.
This is an opportunity to connect and share information among agencies, and to make vital partnerships in the on-going area of labor issues and legal challenges facing law enforcement.
