stop corporate and workerscompensation fraud

by Bobbie Sanders
If EDD can wrongfully terminate an employee and let another employee harrass a pregenant employee with no remorse as well as throw away an employees personal belongings while they are out on medical leave which constitutes unfair and injustice,this is my story and i had to write this to show that martin Luthur King's Dream of Justice and Equality is still a dream to me because of whats been happening to me and my family for the past 14yrs that's how long I've been fighting for justice in the WorkersCompensation Courts in Sacramento.
I worked for the Sate of California EDD as a key data operator and became an injuried worker,
my injuries are a threw and threw torn rotar cuff on the left side and on the right side i had to have Arthroscope surgery in which my bursa sacks were removed in both shoulders leaving me limited range and motion and now have arthritis in my shoulders and neck as well as my back, i also had carpal tunnel and dequvain surgery to both hands and wrists i also later found out that i have fibromyalgia, i was represented but found out my attorney was not in the best interest of me and allowed State Fund and the WCAB Courts to give me a low rating when i had an anxeity attack in court in which later that day my daughter returned to the courts and gave a Dr's note , Judge Susan Dugan just proceeded in all six of my claims so i had to dismiss the attorney and represent myself with all my injuries and disabilities as a result the courts accepted all my injuries as work-related but refuse to compensate me for my injuries and disability, i also proved in court that i was wrongfully terminated by EDD, and while out on disability EDD instead of mailing me my personal belongings decided to go in my desk and throw away all my belongings, also when i was 7mths pregenant and working at EDD i was threaten by another employee and EDD never reported it to the state police. but when i went to the state capital to seek help for the injustice that was happening to me the police was sent to my house. i am writing my story in Honor of Martin Luthur King's Birthday because i have been silient for 14yrs and EDD/STATEFUND/AND THE WORKERS COMPENSATION still refuse to compensate me leaving me and my family suffering and in need medicaly as well as financialy. Im tired of being silient. I am a african-woman with 4 children and 2 grandchildren i was 32 when this started and now im 49 and still no justice in Sacramento, CA WorkerCompensation Courts now they are trying to find a way to make me a Vextious litigant just because i am asking for justice.
