Summary
In California, authorities are not obligated to notify individuals of an investigation unless formal charges are filed. Legal notification usually occurs through a summons or arrest warrant. Retaliation for protected activities is unlawful, and documenting such actions is crucial. The U.S. Constitution protects against unreasonable searches and seizures under the Fourth Amendment and ensures due process rights under the Fourteenth Amendment. If you suspect constitutional violations, consulting with a civil rights attorney can help assess potential claims. The ACLU focuses on civil rights but may not handle individual cases. Consider contacting a civil rights attorney specializing in constitutional law for personalized advice.Full Conversation
I believe they were investigating me but it has now escalated to another person that is not a member of my team, but it has been going on for * very long years.
It's concerning to hear that the investigation has been ongoing for such a long time. In California, if formal charges have not been filed, authorities aren't required to notify you of an investigation. Have you or the other person involved received any legal documents or formal notifications from law enforcement?
No and the retaliation (my opinion) is because I won an administrative case filed against me by the Labor Board, OSHA, EDD & CSLB ($*,*).
It sounds like a complex and challenging situation. Retaliation might be illegal under certain circumstances. Here's some general information:
- Retaliation is unlawful if it's because of protected activities, like opposing discrimination or participating in legal proceedings.
- Consider documenting any retaliatory actions.
- Consult with a lawyer for personalized advice.

I have documentation for my documentation (enough I hope) but if (THEY) don’t have to notify you and let’s face it, they are skilled in shenanigans (and writing CODE) who do I notify of even formally sue? Over 7 years the dynamics and/or agencies have had changes.

Given your situation, it may be worth consulting with an attorney to evaluate potential claims, especially regarding retaliation. In California, you might consider initiating a civil lawsuit against the involved parties if you believe you have grounds. Would you like more information on how to proceed with a potential lawsuit?
So THEY can investigate (rape & pillage) legally without ANY notification. That really leaves THEM and anyone they want I.e. third party (pick a title) a lot of leeway to do whatever to whoever under the guise ‘investigation.’ What in our constitution protects us?

Just 7 years by itself should be a constitutional crime which I’m sure it is under certain circumstances but …. I have access to pretty good legal advice but I know I have constitutional rights that have been absolutely slaughtered. Do they make a lawyer for that?
