GENERAL ASSISTANCE EVIDENTIARY HEARING DECISION
IN THE MATTER OF:
Valerie Dvnae, claimant County No.: 0792-0488503-W4EC
Notice of Action: 08/28/92
Effective Date: 08/28/92
Appeal Filing Date: 09/08/92
Aid Paid Pending: No
Date of Hearing: November 23, 1992
Place of Hearing: Richmond, California
Appeals Officer: Carole C. Allen
Income Maintenance Representative: Wanda Wong, Eligibility Work Supervisor
ISSUE
Whether the County is correct in it's denial of claimant's General Assistance application
of August 6, 1992, based on claimant's failure to complete the application process.
COUNTY POSITION
Claimant applied for General Assistance (G.A.) on 8/6/92. On 8/19/92, claimant signed
a G.A. Agreement. On 8/21/92, the Eligibility Worker received information from the
Employment Development Department (EDD) that claimant is ineligible to
Unemployment Benefits due to medical reasons. Based on this information, the County
asked claimant to apply for State Disability Insurance (SDI). Claimant refused to do so.
Case record documentation shows that on 8/24/92, the Eligibility Worker asked claimant
by phone to apply for SDI because of the information provided by EDD. On file in the
Evidentiary Hearing Decision
Valerie Dvnae
0792-0488503
Page 2
case record is a copy of a medical report showing that claimant had been ill and was able
to resume work on 9/3/92. The report was dated 8/20/92 and signed by an M.D. at
Highland Hospital. The County representative stated that even though claimant was no
longer disabled on 9/3/92, she would have been asked to apply for SDI because she may
have been entitled to it for two weeks.
Based on the above, the County notified claimant of the denial of her application because
of claimant's refusal to apply for income that is available to her.
CLAIMANTS POSITION
Claimant testified that she was never asked by the County to apply for SDI. Had she
been asked to do so she would have complied. Claimant stated the phone conversation
of 8/24/92 did not take place. The EDD determination was based on claimant's statement
to them that she could not look for work during the week ending 8/8/92 because she was
ill. Claimant stated she was ill with a thyroid problem and did not look for work that
week. Claimant appealed the EDD decision. She is taking medication now and feels
better. On 8/26/92, claimant phoned her Eligibility Worker to ask what was going on
with her case. She asked her worker for a Notice of Action because she felt her worker
was not acting promptly on her application. Claimant feels she would not have been
eligible for SDI but she would have applied for it if asked to by the County. Claimant
stated in her hearing request that application for SDI was inappropriate.
REGULATORY AUTHORITY
i
Department Manual Section 49-102,II,B,3, provides that the applicant is responsible
within his/her physical or mental capabilities for taking all actions necessary to obtain
resources from any source available.
Department Manual Section 49-102,III,A,2, provides that the Eligibility Worker shall
assist the applicant in establishing his/her eligibility.
CONCLUSION AND FINDING OF FACT
Claimant met her responsibilities within her capabilities in the determination of her
eligibility to G.A. Although the case documentation indicates that claimant was told

Evidentiary Hearing Decision
Valerie Dvnae

verbally of the requirement to apply for SDI, she was not advised of this in writing.
Claimant may not have understood from the 8/26/92 phone conversation that applying for
SDI was a requirement for the granting of her assistance application.
The County knew on 8/21/92 that claimant was ineligible to LTIB and would be able to
return to work on 9/3/92. At that time, the County should have advised claimant in
writing of her responsibility to apply for SDI benefits for the time she was too in to work
or look for work. Claimant's failure to apply for SDI is not a reason to deny her
application of 8/6/92. Claimant had good cause to have failed to meet her
responsibilities. She did not apply for SDI benefits because she was not clear that this
was a requirement before aid could be granted..
The County's action to deny claimant's G.A. application of 8/6/92 is not sustained.
ORDER
Claim is granted. The denial of claimant's G.A. application of 8/6/92 shall be rescinded.
Claimant shall be notified in writing of her responsibility to apply for SDI for the 8/2/92
through 9/3/92 period.

Dear Ms. Perry: farti,uz'Bmuh/Oy�of the h6GcV1f7t4r
y: u Costa C,7x.,:.
After your appearance before the Board of Supervisors on
November 24, 1992, this Office was asked to review your request and
related correspondence. Enclosed are a copy of the November 24
Board Order and three attachments: 1) a November 2nd letter to
Supervisor Torlakson from the County Personnel Department, 2) a
memo dated October 28 to Phil Batchelor, Harry Cisterman and
Charles James from Supervisor Torlakson, and 3 ) a November 2nd
memorandum to Supervisor Torlakson from Charles James.
I appreciate you coming into the Office on Friday, December 18, and
sharing your concerns with us. As a result of budget cuts, four
positions were cancelled in the Public Defender' s Office, effective
August 31, 1992 . (An additional two attorney positions are
scheduled for cancellation December 31, 1992. ) The four positions
were: two Public Defender I , one Clerical Supervisor, and one
Investigator Assistant.
You indicated that, of the four positions cancelled, yours was the
only one that was filled. That was true, but all of the positions
were funded and the savings became part of the budget reduction
which we required of the Public Defender' s Office. As a result of
the State and County budget crisis, a large number of position
reductions and layoffs throughout County departments were required
to balance this year' s budget. Regrettably, your position was one
of those. Given current projections, it appears that for FY 1993-
94 there will be similar reductions and layoffs.
You further indicated in our meeting that you believe you should be
used as a contract hourly investigator in the Alternate Defense
Unit (ADU) . As I mentioned to you at the meeting, there is no
permanent investigator position budgeted in that unit. The
requirements of the ADU respecting investigative experience and
avoiding possible conflicts of interest also present difficulties
concerning your request.
Ms. Susan Perry 2 December 29, 1992
We do hope you are successful in finding permanent employment and
we regret that the budget crisis resulted in you being laid off.
However, at this point in time, we do not have an investigator
position to offer you.
Very truly yours,

Date: November 2 , 1992
To: Tom Torlakson, Supervisor, District,,5
From: Charles James, Public Defender
Subject: REHIRING OF SUE PERRY
I am writing in response to the October 28 , 1992, memo from
Supervisor Torlakson regarding Sue Perry.
I need not recount here all the background regarding the
difficult decisions forced on every department including ours as
a result of the budget cuts. Ms. Perry had been employed for
more than a year in our primary public defender office in
Martinez. During this time she performed investigative work for
scores of clients of our office. Regrettably, as the last
investigator hired by our Department, we were required to lay off
Ms. Perry as part of our staff reduction plan.
No contract investigator has been hired on either a part-
time or full time basis to fill the Investigator I position in
the investigation division to which Ms. Perry was assigned before
her layoff . Her responsibilities as an Investigator I in our
office have been reassigned to more senior investigator staff who
continued as part of our staff after her layoff.
As you may know, our office has recently opened an Alternate
Defender Office (ADO) to which we have begun transferring cases
where there exists a legal conflict of interest in providing
representation by attorneys in our primary office. While we have
reassigned a few attorneys formerly with our primary office to
the ADO (some of whom would have been otherwise laid off as part
of the budgetary cutbacks) , we were unable to take that action
with regard to Ms. Perry for several reasons.
1) The Board has not authorized an investigator position
for ADO.
2) The caseload of the ADO from its inception and through
its slow expansion over the past months has not justified the
employment of a full time investigator. As the number of cases
needing investigation is limited, assignment of a full time
investigator to the ADO would not be a prudent financial step
given our Department' s budgetary problems. Thus , we have elected
1
to use a contract investigator on a part-time basis when
investigation of a case is needed within the ADO.
3 ) Unlike the situation with attorneys who are personally
constrained by State Bar professional rules governing work that
would create a real or apparent conflict of interest in the
representation of existing and past clients, the situation for
non-attorney, investigative staff is quite different. Attorneys
are covered by the Rules of Professional Conduct promulgated
through the State Bar and are subject to professional discipline
for the violation of confidences or loyalties arising from
representation of a client. :Investigators are not subject to
such a pervasive set of rules for conduct or to- the same type of
professional liability and discipline system governing attorneys.
Thus the guarantees afforded present and former clients which
would prevent, for instance, revelation of confidential client
communications or work product do not apply with the same force
and effect to investigators. Reassignment to work on cases which
might involve present or formes- clients of the primary defender
office where Ms. Perry was employed may be prohibited.
Finally, Ms. Perry was employed in the Investigator
Assistant classification in our primary office prior to her
layoff. were we to hire a full time investigator for our ADO,
such a person would have to be able to investigate the widest
range of cases we handle, rZLnging from misdemeanors through
complex homicide and capital cares. We would have to address the
question of whether, given her entry level Investigator Assistant
qualifications and experience, we could assign such a full range
of cases to her without requiring her to work outside her class.
Our office is sensitive to this concern as I believe Ms. Perry
has filed a grievance already based on an allegation that she was
required to perform investigation tasks beyond her entry level
position.
I hope I have satisfactorily addressed the situation with
regard to our use of a part-time contract investigator with our
ADO. This latter point was covered personally with Ms. Perry
when she and Mr. Clarke met with Mr. Coleman and our
Administrative Services Officer, Mr. Hoffman, in early September.
If I can provide additional information or clarification,
please feel free to contact me at your convenience.

10 You are hereby notified that WALTER R. TEXEIRA, whose address is 195
Kingswood Circle, Danville, California, claims damages from the City of San Ramon
11 and the County of Contra Costa.
12 This claim is based upon personal injuries sustained by Claimant on or about
13 August 28, 1992, in the vicinity of the San Ramon Police Department Headquarters
under the following circumstances:
14
1. On August 28, 1992,-WALTER R. TEXEIRA and his wife went to a movie
15 theater in San Ramon, California. After purchasing two tickets and miscellaneous
16 food and drink items, Mr. and Mrs. Texeira were approached by members of the San
Ramon Police Department and told that their purchases had been made with a
17 counterfeit $20.00 bill.
18 Even though Mr. and Mrs. Texeira cooperated with the law enforcement
19 officers (including a voluntary search of the Texeira vehicle and residence in
Danville, California), Mr. Texeira was arrested and booked into County Jail, in
20 Martinez, California. Bail was later arranged.
21 Ultimately, no charges were filed against Mr. Texeira by the Contra Costa
22 County District Attorney's Office.
23 2. In addition to the above described false imprisonment, law enforcement
officers took, at his arrest, a money clip and currency from Mr. Texeira. Request has
24 been made for return of this property. Representatives of the San Ramon Police
25 Department have declined to return this property.

personal property (money clip and lawful currency) will not be returned to him.
3 Claimant contends that this action by Julie Aumock is, at least, a ratification of the
"conversion" of Claimant's personal property. If this personal property has any
4 "evidentiary value" such can easily be covered by photographs. Thus, retention of
5 Claimant's personal property amounts to an attempt to impose "summary
punishment"and/or the intentional/negligent infliction of"emotional distress"against
6 Claimant.
7 The names of the public employees causing Claimant's injuries under the
8 described circumstances are: (1) Employees of the San Ramon Police Department -
Jim Telles and Chris Wenzel. Claimant is informed the arresting officers work for
9 the City of San Ramon under a special contract with Contra Costa County. Said
officers are members of the Contra Costa County Sheriff's Department. (2) Julie
10 Aumock, Employee of Contra Costa County.
11 The injuries sustained by Claimant, as far as known, as of the date of
12 presentation of this claim, consist of emotional distress and humiliation and
conversion of personal property.
13
The amount claimed, as of the date of presentation of this claim, is computed
14 as follows:
15 Special damages - Bail Bond 300.00
16
Special Damages - (Confiscated money) 127.00
