a.A Pitchess motion
b.A Marsden hearing
c.A Berman hearing
d.A Skelly hearing
Explicación
A DLSE wage-claim hearing before a deputy labor commissioner is commonly called a 'Berman hearing,' named after the legislator who authored the enabling statute (Labor Code §98). It is an informal administrative proceeding to decide unpaid-wage disputes. A Skelly hearing involves public-employee discipline, and Pitchess and Marsden are criminal-procedure motions, none of which relate to wage claims.
