Temple City, California
Temple City is a city in Los Angeles County which is home to more than 30,000 residents. It covers approximately three square miles, and encompasses the following zip codes: 91007, 91775, 91776, and 91780. The town was originally named “City of Temple” after its founder, Walter Temple, but the United States Postmaster General Harry Stewart New demanded a name change in 1926 because the mail was accidentally being directed to the Phoenix suburb of Tempe. It was officially designated “Temple City” but remained a city in name only until after the post–World War II population explosion followed by incorporation on May 25, 1960, which resulted in the redundant name: “City of Temple City”. (This redundancy is shared with other cities in California, such as the City of California City.) Temple City has earned the nickname “The City of Trees” due to its commitment to preserving and planting trees throughout the city. The National Arbor Day Foundation has recognized Temple City as a “Tree City USA.” Temple City hosts an annual Camellia Festival, celebrating the city’s official flower, the camellia. The festival features a parade, carnival rides, food vendors, and entertainment. The Akopyan Law Firm A.P.C. is headquartered in Los Angeles which is minutes away from Temple City.

Singh v. Southland Stone, U.S.A., Inc., 186 Cal. App. 4th 338, 112 Cal. Rptr. 3d 455 (2010)
An alien former employee brought action against former employer and its president for breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, unpaid wages, false promise, wrongful termination in violation of public policy, intentional infliction of emotional distress, promissory estoppel, and misrepresentation to induce relocation for employment. The Superior Court granted motion for non-suit on the breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, unpaid wages, wrongful termination, and intentional infliction of emotional distress, denied it on the others, and entered judgment following jury trial in favor of former employee. The former employer’s and president’s motions for new trial and judgment notwithstanding the verdict (JNOV) were denied. On appeal the Court of Appeal held as follows: 1 court properly instructed the jury not to consider former employee’s visa petition as evidence of a collateral agreement regarding length of employment contract; 2 employment was at will; 3 former employee was not entitled to continue to receive $10,000 monthly salary during employment; 4 new trial was required by jury’s inconsistent special verdict findings; 5 jury instruction that former employee could not be awarded duplicative damages on different counts should not have been used with special verdict; 6 workers’ compensation exclusivity rule applied to any emotional injury from president’s misconduct; and 7 exclusivity rule did not apply to former employee’s claims for promissory estoppel, misrepresentation to induce relocation for employment, false promise, intentional misrepresentation, concealment, or for unpaid wages.
