Case Update: On November 13, 2019, the Liberty Justice Center was able to secure a settlement for our client, Alfred Sweet.
Alfred Sweet was a psychiatric technician at Atascadero State Hospital in Paso Robles. Sweet joined the California Association of Psychiatric Technicians when he started working at the hospital in 2011 and began making requests to resign and become an agency fee payer in 2014.
Those requests were denied. After the Janus decision, Sweet submitted his resignation once again. However, the union would not recognize Sweet’s resignation until a thirty-day opt-out period beginning June 1, 2019, and California Department of State Hospitals continued to deduct dues from his paycheck. The Liberty Justice Center represented Sweet in his fight for his Janus rights.
