****This consumer experience was had during the COVID19 pandemic.****…read more Important to note: This Social Security Administration federal office is currently open to the public HOWEVER please note, assistance is by appointment only. You can obtain an appointment in a few ways: Call their toll free number or attempt online. I made my appointment for today; Thursday over the phone earlier in the week because I phoned them to discuss a letter I had received from them recently. I learned that I had to present in person in order to conclude my business. Interesting was that the person who answered the call was also the person I met with today. I liked this because I felt more comfortable when meeting her as she was already familiar with my needs. Name changes are currently being processed here and by appointment only. You must present with your actual DMV drivers license and "original" stamped signed and dated by the court "seal" for some services like the name change. I'd phone them to get the actual list before presenting in person for an appointment. There was a line outside the front doors when I arrived but it soon vanished because everyone but one person wanted to see an employee for assistance. Once they were informed that was not the procedure they left. The environment was so peaceful. Security is on-site and I felt way more comfortable seeing and experiencing this as I was thoroughly screened for weapons. Made me feel super safe. Lastly, it can get costly to work on your Social Security paperwork by mail and today I learned they have over-sized postage paid, self addressed manila envelopes for the public available here. Good to see our tax dollars at work.

Statement of Serious Concern Regarding Judicial Conduct, Due Process, and Systemic Failures in…read moreFamily Court Family courts wield extraordinary authority over the lives of parents and children. With that authority comes a legal and ethical obligation to act with impartiality, professionalism, and strict adherence to constitutional protections. When those obligations are not upheld, the consequences are profound--not only for individual families, but for public confidence in the justice system itself. In my experience within the San Joaquin County family court system, including proceedings involving Judge Cheryl McCanne, Judge Jonathan Fattarsi, Judge Danielle Ramirez, Commissioner Robin Apple, and mediator Marisol Enos, I have observed troubling patterns that raise serious concerns about transparency, professionalism, and adherence to the rule of law. Court proceedings involving the safety and well-being of children should be treated with the highest level of seriousness and integrity. Yet in my experience, I have witnessed conduct that appears dismissive and unprofessional, including moments in which proceedings involving children's welfare were treated in a manner that felt inappropriate for the gravity of the issues at hand. When families are seeking protection and fairness from the court, the process should never feel like a mockery of the suffering being described. Equally concerning are procedural barriers that make it difficult to verify what actually occurred during hearings. Parents must be able to review court recordings and ensure that written orders accurately reflect what was stated in open court. When access to recordings is limited or when written minute orders appear inconsistent with statements made during the hearing, it undermines the transparency that due process requires. The United States Supreme Court has repeatedly recognized that the relationship between parent and child is a fundamental liberty interest protected by the Fourteenth Amendment. In Troxel v. Granville (2000) 530 U.S. 57, the Court affirmed that parental rights are among the oldest and most protected liberties in American law. Likewise, in Santosky v. Kramer (1982) 455 U.S. 745, the Court held that the government must exercise the utmost care and procedural fairness when interfering with parental rights because the consequences are so severe. California law also contains safeguards designed to preserve the integrity of judicial proceedings, including: * California Penal Code §118 - prohibiting perjury under oath * California Penal Code §§132-134 - prohibiting the presentation or preparation of false evidence * California Penal Code §182 - addressing conspiracies that interfere with lawful judicial processes * California Family Code §3027.1 - authorizing sanctions when knowingly false allegations are used in custody disputes Judicial officers are bound by the California Code of Judicial Ethics, which requires integrity, impartiality, and the avoidance of conduct that creates even the appearance of impropriety. Oversight of these obligations is entrusted to the California Commission on Judicial Performance. Family court should never become a system where legal procedures are used in ways that feel coercive, manipulative, or dismissive of legitimate concerns regarding the safety and welfare of children. When parents believe that their voices are ignored, that evidence is disregarded, or that they are being forced through unnecessary procedural hurdles, it raises legitimate questions about whether the system is functioning as intended. The issues raised here extend beyond a single case. They reflect a broader concern about whether families without financial resources or influence are being treated with the same fairness and dignity as those with greater access to power and representation. Justice must never depend on status, relationships, or resources. The law demands equal protection for every parent and every child. These concerns will be submitted to the appropriate oversight and accountability institutions for review, including the California Commission on Judicial Performance, appellate courts, relevant state authorities, and other agencies responsible for ensuring that the administration of justice remains lawful and ethical. Public institutions function best when serious concerns are examined transparently and thoroughly. The purpose of raising these issues is not to undermine the judiciary, but to insist that the principles of fairness, due process, and accountability remain at the center of family court proceedings. When the rights of children and parents are at stake, the justice system must be held to the highest possible standard.

A few years ago, I received a ticket and went to court here, and Judge Sparks did not hear me out…read more I ended up paying the ticket even though I had pictures of the street signs that said there was a certain time when you cannot make a turn, and it was after that time near Jacobson Elementary school in Tracy. She said it was my fault for not understanding the sign, what??? I highly recommend having a "motion for change of venue" to have your court hearing transferred. You'll need to show proof that you think they might be biased or that you feel you'll have an unfair trial. Use these reviews as proof, and I am not the only one, as you can see.

However I was quite ashamed as I had been to many business mixers before, and disappointed in the people's professionalism tonight. There were two new members to the Commerce tonight, and no one but myself clapped as these companies came forward when announced. Then me and my colleague talked to a group of proffesionals and during our discussion, not even a minute later, two of them pulled out there cell phones and started texting or something. Thank you people from Hertz, it was so kind of you. Then a pest control company we started to talk to when he was talking with another professional lady, and we asked him about his business and then he said he wasn't taking on new business, but proceeded to hand out his business info to this other woman. REALLY! This was the point in which time we left.

This review is not for the building or security but for the records office where you can get your birth certificate. I went in and a lovely lady assisted me. She was polite and friendly, advised me of the process and so I completed it. After I took everything back up to her, she advised me it would be a quick wait and to have a seat. At the time, I was on disability due to a previous TORN MCL injury, so I could not stand long. Mind you, I even had a minor limp. I was told I could have a seat by the nice representative processing my request. As soon as a I sat down, some guy who was not even ASSISTING me that was behind the glass, told me I needed to stand up and wait for my turn? Despite me already being assisted but everyone else was sitting? Just because one had a child and another was elderly.... why couldn't I sit down? I felt this rep needs a refresher in disability rights and to learn how not to discriminate. Not ALL disabilities can be seen by the naked eye. I am not the type to argue especially in a government/city building so I stood up and when the lady noticed this, she quickly tried to process my request to get me in and out. After a few minutes, I sat back down because of the pain I was feeling in my knee. The man, however, needs an attitude check and a reminder by HR to leave your problems at the door when clocking in to work. If the process is to not sit (which doesn't make sense.... not everyone can stand for long periods to fill out forms oR at the computer) then you should be mindful of that. Have some signs up maybe if that's the policy !

Tracy is a city I always pass by when I'm going to the South Bay Area from Sacramento or on my way…read morehome. I didn't usually pay much attention to Tracy many years ago. But they're started catching my attention in recent years. The City of Tracy is quietly building up more and more new buildings on both sides of the freeway near I-205. It has many more businesses opened up in Tracy, and lots more people moved to the area. On the other hand, Tracy still gives me the other side of the county and small village feels. They have many almond farms with hundreds or thousands of almond trees everywhere. The flowers are so beautiful in late February and March. The City of Tracy is still in the process of moving more closely with all its neighboring cities in the Bay Area. They built many new shopping centers in the city. Some are pretty good! Some failed. But shopping malls failed and are becoming the new normal after the pandemic now! I hope the City of Tracy will non-stop improving but still be able to keep their county feels.

I just attended the City of Tracy shredding event to help my parents out with years of old papers,…read moresensitive documents, etc. When we got there, there were several cars in front of us. We got into the line at 12:52pm and the event was until 1pm. 4 cars arrived after us and were also in line. Once we got closer to the trucks, there was an elderly woman who seemed to be taking down people's information. She consulted with another older gentleman and told us it was 1pm, the bins were full so they could no longer accept us. I informed her that we were in the line before 1pm. She just said I'm sorry we can't take you. She was polite enough, but I am disappointed with the city. They turned away the cars after us as well. If you have a hard cutoff of 1pm then you need to CLEARLY state that on the website. It just says 9-1pm so presumably arriving in the line to shred by 1pm would be sufficient. They should have accepted the cars who were in line by 1pm and then put up a roadblock sign announcing that the event is over/closed. Also, the bins are not magically full at exactly 1:00pm. If you have a cutoff time, that's fine but don't tell me at 12:59 the bins aren't full but are at 1:00pm. I will look elsewhere to take care of my document shredding needs and will not recommend people to come to the City of Tracy event unless they arrive early in the morning. I don't blame the workers but I am unhappy with the service as we had arrived by 1pm - the stated time - and I may sound entitled, but how many cars, etc. are in line is not my problem. If I have arrived to the venue by the stated time, I expect to receive the service I am there for.
