My mother has worked for the state of California for many years in Santa Cruz. With her retirement coming in January, they have told her she must transfer from her office (which is not closing) to another office 20 miles away. She has a note from her doctor suggesting that the travel and uncomfortable environment are not good for her health (she has many conditions - heart, etc. -- that are exacerbated by stress). She has been told that "a committee" must review her request not to be transferred. What are her rights? Is the any free legal advice for California State Employees? Thank you for any aid.
