The laws provide enhanced sentences for those convicted of violent or threatening behavior based on race, gender, religion, age, disabilities or sexual preference. The tougher penalties and higher civil awards were authored by Lockyer when he was Senate President Pro Tem of the California Legislature.
    The Ralph Civil Rights Act was enacted as part of the Civil Code of California to address the problem of racial, ethnic, religious and minority violence by providing civil and administrative remedies for those who are victims of violence directed against any particular class of persons.
    If you are a victim you can either file a private lawsuit in the appropriate court, or you can file a complaint with the Attorney General's Civil Rights Enforcement Section or with the Department of Fair Employment and Housing . If you chose to file a complaint with the Department of Fair Employment and Housing you must do so no later than one year after your Ralph Act rights have been violated.
    The Bane Civil Rights Act protects people from continued violence or the threat of violence based on grounds such as race, color, religion, ancestry, national origin, political affiliation, sex, sexual orientation, age, disability or position in a labor dispute. The court may grant an injunction prohibiting further intimidating or coercive behavior against you. Any violation of this order is a misdemeanor and may result in fines or imprisonment. If a judgment is awarded in your favor in a private lawsuit, you may receive reasonable attorney's fees as well.

    THE FEDERAL “CAN SPAM” LAW
    IVAN HOFFMAN, B.A., J.D.
    Effective January 1, 2004, there is a federal law dealing with the issues of electronic “spam.” According to the terms of the statute, the federal law is to replace and preempt state and other laws, regulations and rules that expressly regulate commercial email, except as indicated in the federal law. Thus some state and other laws, regulations and rules and/or some aspects thereof dealing with commercial email may still apply. The federal statute in this regard reads: (b) STATE LAW- (1) IN GENERAL- This Act supersedes any statute, regulation, or rule of a State or political subdivision of a State that expressly regulates the use of electronic mail to send commercial messages, except to the extent that any such statute, regulation, or rule prohibits falsity or deception in any portion of a commercial electronic mail message or information attached thereto. Other state laws, however, are not affected by this statute.

    The Statute
    In 1910, Congress enacted the Insecticide Act of 1910. This was one of the early environmetal laws that was intended to protect farmers from adulterated or misbranded pesticide products. Congress subsequently enacted the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act
    Important FIFRA requirements are as follows:
    • No one may sell, distribute, or use a pesticide unless it is registered by the EPA or meets a specific exemption as described in the regulations . Registration includes approval by the EPA of the pesticide's label, which must give detailed instructions forits safe use.
      EPA must classify each pesticide as either "general use," "restricted use," or both. "General use" pesticides may be applied by anyone, but "restricted use" pesticides may only be applied by certified applicators or persons working under the direct supervision of a certified applicator. Because there are only limited data for new chemicals, most pesticides are initially classified as restricted use. Applicators are certified by a state if the state operates a certification program approved by the EPA.

    Cellular and cordless telephone communications are protected under federal law
    FCC regulations also govern interception and recording.
    ederal law makes it a crime to intentionally intercept, attempt to intercept or have someone else intercept on one's behalf any wire, oral or electronic communication. It is also prohibited to intentionally use, attempt to use or have someone else use "any electronic, mechanical, or other device" to intercept an oral communication when the device is affixed to or otherwise transmits a signal through radio or through "a wire, cable, or other like connection" used in wire communication.
    It is also illegal to intentionally use or disclose any information concerning the substance, purport or meaning of such a communication if one knows or has reason to know the information was obtained illegally. Reasonable expectation of privacy
    The statute requires a reasonable expectation of privacy for oral communications. In other words, to be protected an oral communication must be uttered by a person exhibiting an expectation that the communication is not subject to interception, under circumstances that justify that expectation.

Hardly a day goes by in which the news media do not report new examples of the use of computers and the Internet to commit fraud and economic crimes such as online auction fraud and identity theft. Equally troublesome is the problem of "spam." Unsolicited bulk e-mail, sometimes referred to as "spam" or "Unsolicited Commercial Electronic mail", is electronic mail which is unsolicited and sent for the purpose of selling the recipient goods, services, or properties. Commercial Electronic mail advertisements are most often used for multi-level marketing schemes, get-rich-quick schemes, work-at-home schemes, questionable products or pornography. Unsolicited e-mail from adult-oriented Web sites has increased 450 percent since June of 2001. In fact, adult oriented spam comprises 8 percent of all unsolicited messages - double the percentage from last year. Not only does SPAM affect consumer and citizen email users but it can cripple businesses and Internet Service Providers. Attorney General Jerry W. Kilgore worked with the Virginia hi-tech community and Internet Service Providers as well as Delegate Jeannemarie Devolites and Senator Ken Stolle to draft and support the new Anti-Spam Legislation passed by the 2003 Virginia General Assembly. This law is a first of its kind in the United States and is a comprehensive and leading effort to revise the Code of Virginia to address crimes committed via computers or computer networks involving spam and obscenity over the Internet.

    Overview of the Federal Anti-Bootleg Statute
    With President Clinton's signing of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) in December 1994, a federal anti-bootleg statute was created. Up until then, generally only state statutes had been available to law enforcement and the RIAA's anti-piracy unit to protect artists' recording rights against bootleggers. Like the pre-existing state statutes, the new federal statute criminalizes the unauthorized manufacture, distribution or trafficking in sound recordings and music videos of "live" musical performances. However, the federal statute also provides for the seizure of bootleg recordings or music videos manufactured outside the United States by U.S. Customs at the point of importation. In effect, bootleg recordings are now subject to seizure and forfeiture in the same manner as other property in violation of customs laws. The maximum penalties for violating the new law are imprisonment up to 10 years and/or a fine of $250,000. The RIAA's anti-piracy unit coordinates the initial examination of product on behalf of the recording industry. If you wish to report suspected bootleg recordings, call RIAA at 1-800-BAD-BEAT and ask for the Customs Desk or e-mail us at
