FAQ

Criminal Law: California Penal Code Section 368 On the criminal side, the primary law targeting elder abuse is California Penal Code Section 368 (PC 368). This is a wide-ranging law that encompasses physical, financial, and emotional forms of elder abuse and applies to individuals aged 65 or older.

Report of Suspected Dependent Adult/Elder Abuse (SOC 341) Statement Acknowledging Requirement To Report Suspected Abuse Of Dependent Adults And Elders (SOC 341A) Report Of Suspected Dependent Adult/Elder Financial Abuse - For Use By Financial Institutions (SOC 342)

In California, elders are defined as persons 60 years and older. Under California law, elder abuse can be both criminal and civil. Civil law defines elder abuse as physical abuse, neglect, financial abuse, abandonment, isolation, abduction, or other treatment resulting in harm, pain or mental suffering to an elder.

An elder is a person of age 60 or older. A dependent adult is a person between the ages of 18 and 59 with physical, mental, or developmental disabilities. The full scope of elder and dependent abuse is limited due to the problem's hidden and complex nature.

Each California County has an Adult Protective Services (APS) agency to help elder adults (60 years and older) and dependent adults (18-59 who are disabled), when these adults are unable to meet their own needs, or are victims of abuse, neglect or exploitation.

(a) “Elder” for purposes of this section means any person residing in this state who is 65 years of age or older.

An APS investigator will: conduct a home visit, usually unannounced; interview other individuals who may have information about the situation; and. offer protective services if the investigator determines abuse has occurred.

Responding to Accusations Stay Calm: It's easier said than done, but staying calm is crucial. Report the Facts: Answer the investigator's questions calmly and factually. Keep Perspective: Most reports don't lead to action without substantial evidence.

Jurors are asked to dress appropriately for a courtroom. Business or casual dress is acceptable-jeans and t-shirts are okay. Jurors are warned that temperatures in courtrooms can vary widely (both cold and hot) and are encouraged to dress appropriately. SHORTS AND TANK TOPS ARE NOT ALLOWED IN COURTROOMS.
