What is the effect of section 1101 of the Civil Code of Civil Procedure when it comes to limiting employees' political activities?
The following excerpt is from Finkelstein v. Bergna, 924 F.2d 1449 (9th Cir. 1991):
1 I would amend the original opinion to rely on other support than Connick v. Myers, 461 U.S. 138, 103 S.Ct. 1684, 75 L.Ed.2d 708 (1983), but the result should remain the same and the essential reasoning is sound.
2 Section 1101 reads:
No employer shall make, adopt, or enforce any rule, regulation, or policy:
(a) Forbidding or preventing employees from engaging or participating in politics or from becoming candidates for public office.
(b) Controlling or directing, or tending to control or direct the political activities or affiliations of employees.
Section 1102 reads:
"The most advanced legal research software ever built."
