NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. - Jan. 13, 2015 - PRLog -- Brian Chase, senior partner at the Newport Beach personal injury law firm of Bisnar | Chase and current President of the Consumer Attorneys of California (CAOC), received an invitation to attend swearing-in ceremonies for Gov. Jerry Brown, Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom, the Supreme Court Justices - Leondra Kruger and Mariano-Florentino Cuéllar, Attorney General Kamala Harris and Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones in Sacramento on Jan. 5.

Chase said it was an honor and a pleasure to be invited "to witness democracy in action." "These are all very impressive and talented people who are striving to make California better for all of us," he said. "Watching Gov. Brown take his oath for a historic fourth time was indeed special."

Chase praised Brown for making a commitment, during his 23-minute speech, to reduce carbon emissions by cutting petroleum use in cars in half over the next 15 years. "Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom has made much-needed economic growth in California his top priority," he said. "Attorney General Harris' promise to continue to fight criminal gangs and human trafficking in California while vigorously fighting for consumer rights is very encouraging. Insurance Commissioner Jones has vowed to continue to work hard to protect consumer rights."

Chase said he is particularly pleased to see the governor's 2015-16 budget increase the state court system's funding from $3.29 billion last year to $3.47 billion this year with most of the increase headed to the trial courts statewide, which have been the worst hit by the cutbacks. Chase said this additional funding would help courts across the state that have been forced to reduce public hours, lay off employees and shut down remote courthouses.

"This is another positive step toward returning the courts to stable footing and the level of funding that is needed to assure all Californians of access to justice," Chase said. "The massive cuts to trial courts sank this cornerstone of democracy into an incredibly deep hole. As a result, consumers still face obstacles to their constitutional right – to have their day in court when they have been harmed or cheated."

Chase said there is much more to be done in this regard. "There is a lot more hard work remaining, and we look forward to joining Gov. Brown and Chief Justice Cantil-Sakauye and getting it done."
