Applicant's attorneys hear legislator's "mea culpa"
Friday at the California Applicant's Attorney Association summer convention, the "congregation" heard several democratic legislators utter their apologies for their votes on SB 899. "It was a mistake" said Assembly Speaker Pro Tem, Dr. Leland Yee of San Francisco.
Of course, here's the problem: the mistake cannot be corrected. There is no political will to do so. There are lawsuits pending to declare the new permanent disability schedule "illegal." Are these the only hope for injured workers? That appears to be the situation.
