It doesnt matter what information you are privy to. Courts in general and the Labor Commissioner rely on precedent. What you are stating has no precedent in any case law I am aware of. And I litigate cases in front of the DLSE and I practice work comp and employment law as well.
I understand AHF will stop at nothing to see their ill advised ballot measure be enforced but they dont really understand how to win and influence people. Since Weinstein cant get his way with the Los Angeles County Department of Health he now wants the voters of Los Angeles to vote on a ballot measure that will cost them untold expenses so he can set up its own Department of Health. I see that going no where fast as well.
If AB 332 dies in committee and if he tries to get it on a state wide ballot, he will face the same issue state wide that he faces in Los Angeles County - no one will care to enforce it.
Perhaps if Weinstein had a little more sense he could have spent his money in a way that would have guaranteed results. If he would have taken the millions he spent on the ballot the measure and now the millions more he will spend and simply paid the producers to use condoms he would have probably found a willing market.
How many producers in Los Angeles would welcome condoms if AHF was paying the tab on their content production ? He probably could have spent $5 million and funded condoms in porn for several years.
You cant force people to do what they dont want to do - but you can certainly pay them to do it.
