Courts across the country are modifying their rules and, in some cases, shutting down all-together. Most court functions have been severely reduced to discourage gatherings required for normal court business. Exceptions exist for the most critical legal interventions in society; gun restraining orders, emergency family custody disputes, etc.
However, businesses and companies face a complete shut-out to justice served over business disputes. As of May 1st, 2020, here is what the court landscape looks like.
California Supreme Court
Currently, the California Supreme Court can mostly maintain business as most functions have been converted to remote. A “staggering” policy implemented extends deadlines out 60 days, and then has been extended again.
Superior County Courts
All the below courts have certain exceptions for safety or family matters.
Los Angeles – Shut down till May 12. Our own investigation sees a few dozen new cases being filed per day.
Orange County – Shut down until May 22. Our own investigations show virtually zero new case filings.
Riverside – Any conferences, meetings, or trials that had been scheduled are cleared and need to be rescheduled when open.
Sacramento – The courts are shut down and will not begin to allow scheduling until June 1, 2020.
San Diego – The courts have been shut down and were set to reopen May 1st. However, the day before, the court extended the shut down until May 22nd.
San Francisco – The courts are shut down until June 1, 2020.
Ventura County – The courts are shut down until May 12, 2020. Extensions at that time are unknown but carry some likeliness to happen.
California Federal District Courts
The 4 district courts have mostly converted to e-file, and have stopped new filings except for urgent, extremely time sensitive matters. The court websites list specific phone numbers you should call for more information.

The engagement ring is a symbol of dedication to the other person. It is a symbol of love and commitment between two people who want to spend the rest of their lives with each other. One ring that will remind of the biggest decision in the couple’s life until the end of their days.
While planning the engagement, many factors should be taken into consideration. Starting from the place, in which the special moment will happen, through choosing the date, ending on scenery, etc.
All of this is to make some beautiful memories of that great event, the memories that will stay with us forever.
Apart from memories, another thing that will also remain is, of course, the ring. That is why everyone knows that the engagement ring must be perfect. And it is no secret how much women love diamond rings…
Perfect diamond engagement ring
The 4 C represent the main four components of a diamond:
Cut
Color
Clarity
Carat
In other words, the beauty, quality, and price of a diamond depend on the crucial 4 C.
We should also remember about very important S and the 5th C – Shape, and Certification.
The diamond ring prices are incredibly abundant. As an example, some of the Cartier diamond rings are available for less than $5,000, while some Hollywood stars and celebrities adorn their fingers with rings priced up to even 10 million dollars!
With the above information, the next step, a very important factor that determines what engagement ring we buy, is our budget. We need to know how much we can spend on a diamond ring, and whether it is better to buy a used engagement ring with a larger diamond.
Engagement Ring Price
It is commonly heard that the right amount to spend on an engagement ring is a two months income. That means, if the yearly income is $75,000, then the right amount to spend on the ring is around $12,500. However, it should be everyone’s own decision made without any pressure.
What comes next?
When the budget is settled, we can move forward to choosing the one and only ring by its design. Luckily, there is an innumerable amount of rings on the market. We can choose between diamonds settled in platinum, gold, rose gold, or white gold, in a variety of shapes, cuts, and colors.
The most popular are transparent diamonds, but there are also many colored diamonds, such as yellow, green, pink, or even black. Round Brilliant Cut, Princess Cut, Cushion Cut, or Emerald Cut are only some of the examples of many diamond shapes.
The ones looking for a pure classic style, or the others, wishing for something more fancy – everyone will find their perfect diamond engagement ring.
Designers of diamond engagement rings:
Tiffany & Co.
This iconic, American brand’s name is strongly recognized by… well, probably everyone. The luxurious jewelry from Tiffany & Co. is extremely high-priced but is also of the best quality.
If someone can afford one of the Tiffany diamond engagement rings, it also would be an excellent idea to invest in their large collection of astonishing wedding bands! Clearly, wearing Tiffany’s diamond engagement ring and wedding band is an absolute dream.

Getting a GIA report for a diamond engagement ring will provide a full description of a diamond, vigorously tested by the best gemologists.
It is always a good idea to check if the diamond engagement ring that we are going to buy is GIA certified.
Used Diamond Engagement Rings
An excellent way of finding a luxurious GIA Certified diamond ring for the engagement is searching for restored, used rings.

The Nashville troubadour takes listeners on a journey to the heart of American music.
Mark Henes has spent years performing around Nashville’s music scene, cultivating a loyal following with his genre hopping, Americana influenced sound. Now he is finally ready to formally introduce himself to the world with the release of his debut album “Crystallized Reflections,” which features thirteen stellar tracks that touch on everything from country and soul to punk.
Lead single “Ghost Train” kicks things off. A haunted ode to lost love, the song takes its influence from the outlaw country of the seventies, with a hard edged sound held together by Henes’ booming baritone. Mark immediately starts to show his versatility as he switches gears on album highlight “I Pray, I Pray,” in which he is backed by a soulful horn section. The acoustic guitar driven “The Underground” channels Johnny Cash. “I am traveling to the north country,” he sings mournfully, as a string section sets the mood behind him.
There are many artists out there who can play multiple genres, but very few who can do it as convincingly as Henes. This is best exemplified by “Strip Me Down,” in which the young songwriter shows off a completely different side of his artistry. An energetic pop punk song that would sound right at home on the Warped Tour, it shows Mark at his most confrontational, with a hook that gets stuck in your head right away and stays there for weeks.
Across thirteen songs, Mark rarely repeats himself stylistically, but the entire album is held together by his commanding voice and thematic consistency. On “Arm Full Of Roses,” he slows things down again, with a comforting ballad that might have sounded at home on vintage FM radio in the sixties. The reverb heavy guitars and doo wop harmonies enhance the retro magic of the production, before giving way to chugging blues rock of “Death Was The Penalty,” in which Mark plays the role of convicted criminal as a wall of guitars provides the soundtrack for his getaway.
By the time Henes gets to album closer “Tennessee Hills,” with its old time fiddles and banjos, the listener gets the sense they’ve spent the past hour or so driving slowly across the middle of the country, exchanging stories and songs with a childhood friend. “Crystallized Reflections” is a truly one of a kind album from an artist who is just getting started on his musical journey.
“Crystallized Reflections” is available everywhere Oct 30, 2020

Growing an indie music group in the Palm Beach music scene can be tough, but the admired local band, RedrumSociety, appears to be making a fantastic go of it. RedrumSociey is the band behind popular tracks such as Ego, How I Cope, and Crumble, and they have announced their new acoustic album.
The album, titled “Redrum Acoustic Vol. 1”, will mark an interesting departure from previous sounds. Normally the band blends an interesting mix between indie rock and alternative. This new acoustic album offers a different sound altogether. The album is a remix of previous released tracks; Ego, Crumble, How I Cope, and In My Bed. This acoustic album can go a long way to help open up the Palm Beach-based band to a whole new audience.
Moving on from the success of each single release and a successful performance on “60 Minutes”, the band looks to have found an new musical niche. Having gained positive headlines earlier on in the year by donating royalties to affected music execs during the COVID-19 crisis, the band now is back on the musical scene and releasing new content.
The album, which is expected to be released this month, will focus on topics that will feel close to the heart of many music fans today. An acoustic sound offers an interesting departure from previous works, creating an interesting blend of sounds and themes from a band with a quickly growing reputation. Having focused on blurring the lines between normal indie rock and more alternative music, this is yet another interesting audio experiment from a band with a very bright future ahead of itself. With many people finding out about the band through their creative use of social media and their approach to music as a means of emotive storytelling, RedrumSociety might have a new audience to look forward to for their album release.
For fans of the band, and new fans, this should offer an interesting new take on quite a unique sound. The band, headed up by Zach Cohen, has a history of being influenced by blues and funk hits. This more soulful approach to musical writing could offer a whole new take on their music. Expect more information to be released about the album in the near future.

NEW DELHI/AHMEDABAD (Reuters) – India has shipped 50 million tablets of hydroxychloroquine to the United States, an Indian source with direct knowledge of the exports said, although U.S. regulators warned the anti-malarial drug may have harmful side effects in the treatment of COVID-19.
The trade, India’s biggest export of the drug to any country, follows a request by U.S. President Donald Trump for New Delhi to release supplies of hydroxychloroquine as a possible treatment for the respiratory disease.
“It amounts to 50 million tablets… Commercial companies are pursuing. It’s ongoing,” said the source, who declined to be identified due to the sensitivity of discussions with the United States.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the European Union’s drug regulator and the Canadian health department have cautioned against the use of hydroxychloroquine, citing side effects such as abnormal heart rhythms and a dangerously rapid heart rate.
However, the health warnings have done little to deter the drug’s imports to the United States, where some doctors are continuing to prescribe the drug for the treatment of COVID-19.
“There is high demand for hydroxychloroquine in the international market including U.S.,” Viranchi Shah, senior vice-president, Indian Drug Manufacturers Association (IDMA), told Reuters.
This month India said it would allow some exports of hydroxychloroquine after Trump touted it as a “game changer” and urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to send supplies.
In Modi’s home state of Gujarat, 68 new licences have been issued to drugmakers to manufacture hydroxychloroquine formulations, H.G. Koshia, commissioner, Food and Drug Control Administration (FDCA), Gujarat, told Reuters.
“Majority of these licences are for exports,” he said.
Teva Pharmaceutical Industries, IPCA Laboratories and Cadila Healthcare are among India’s leading suppliers of hydroxychloroquine.
Cadila Healthcare recently said it was ramping up production tenfold to 30 metric tonnes per month.
Sales of the decades-old treatment had soared overnight after Trump’s advocacy of the drug, raising questions whether political pressure had overridden scientific criteria in the crisis.
As the U.S. coronavirus death toll topped 60,000 on Wednesday – the highest in the world – doctors in the United States are desperate for anything that might alter the course of the disease, which attacks the lungs and can shut down other organs in severe cases.
“Pharma companies in Gujarat are continuing to produce and export hydroxychloroquine in large quantities,” IDMA’s Shah said.
The foreign ministry said India was continuing to supply hydroxychloroquine, and other essential medicines produced in India, to other countries. These supplies were taking place both on a humanitarian and a commercial basis.
