"Legal Battle: Miami Beach Nightclubs Challenge Spring Break Curfew"

A judge has ruled to uphold Miami Beach's midnight curfew for spring break, despite a legal challenge from three South Beach nightclubs. The nightclubs filed a complaint against the city, arguing that the curfew unduly penalizes their lawful business operations. However, the judge denied their request, stating that city officials acted in good faith and had tailored the curfew to allow for some businesses. The curfew, which began on Friday night and is set to last through the weekend, applies to areas south of 23rd Street and requires businesses to close after midnight.

Widow of Deputy Who Died by Suicide Blames LA Sheriff's Department in Claim

The widow of a Los Angeles sheriff's deputy who died by suicide has filed a claim against the Los Angeles County and the sheriff's department, blaming mandatory overtime for her husband's death. The family's attorney alleges that the deputy, who had worked for over 21 years, was forced to work excessive overtime hours as a jail guard and repeatedly tried to be transferred out of the jail but was denied. The attorney claims that the lack of deputies and excessive overtime is a "life or death situation" and seeks $20 million in a wrongful death complaint. The attorney also points to other cases of deputy suicides and blames excessive overtime for contributing to their deaths.
