Overview: In a juvenile proceeding, a speedy trial error did not justify reversal of a finding that defendant was culpable for assault because the only prejudice asserted was that additional admissible evidence, crucial to State's case, was ultimately produced after an eight-day recess. There was no miscarriage of justice under Cal. Const., art. VI, § 13.

Overview: A police officer's disability discrimination claim failed where the city had no duty under FEHA to make his temporary front-desk assignment permanent because that would, in effect, require the city to create a new sworn-officer position just for the officer, an obligation not imposed by FEHA's accommodation requirements.
