MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Stein v. Tri-City Healthcare Dist., Case No.: 3:12-CV-2524-BTM-BGS (S.D. Cal. 2014):
information to a government or law enforcement agency, where the employee has reasonable cause to believe that the information discloses a violation of state or federal statute . . . ." However, the plaintiff must also show that their disclosure of information went beyond their normal job duties. See, e.g., Edgerly v. City of Oakland, 211 Cal. App. 4th 1191, 1207 (2012); Lukov v. Schindler Elevator Corp., 2012 WL 5464622. at *6 (N.D. Cal. Nov. 8, 2012).2
