Our partner, David E. Mastagni, will be one of the panelists to share his insights and important information on investigating police misconduct and how POBR works in practice. The panel will address the circumstances under which POBR applies, the investigations of allegations of peace officer misconduct, and a comparison of POBR rights with Weingarten Rights afforded other public employees. Additionally, the panel will compare and contrast the provisions in California's POBR with other states including Maryland, New York, and Illinois.
