Unfortunately laws don’t really matter anymore. Had a recent experience in small claims court in CA. Company had my truck towed from an unposted public road with no notification. Company owner was a streetshitter, and tow company was a mexican. According to CA law they violated five statutes. Clear as day, no question. The statutes even had calculations for damages. Got a female judge that ruled in favor of the company and tow company. Looked up the judge after the fact. Her bio stated “Lawyer, Feminist, Activist, and advocate for sex offender rights.” Wish I could say I was joking, but that is what our legal system has become.
