everyone agrees on that one, avery.his is a legal fight in the making or is this a dispute over medical ethics? how do you see it? >> it's actually both. title i of the americans with disabilities act of 1990 prohibits the denial of service based on disability. now, if disability alone were the reason, the hospital could very well be violating federal law. but it has to be considered in the context of sound medical judgment. the bottom line is if there are factors other than intellectual disability that go into the formula, then that will be -- that will determine the outcome. what we know this week, coming week, is children's hospital of philadelphia and the family, the rivera family, will meet and talk this out in more detail. >> in the meantime just for the record, children's hospital did say in this statement that we do not disqualify potential transplant candidates on the basis of intellectual abilities. we have transplanted many children with a wide range of disabilities, including physical and mental disabilities

what's another way that you can deal with that, avery?well, i think this case was absolutely unnecessary. martin chavez, the mayor of albuquerque, had a very simple way of dealing with it. have sex offenders registered, restrict their mobility in the library. but no, he does a carte blanche, a federal district judge ruled it's unconstitutional. every american has the right to information. and a three-judge panel last week affirmed that. so that means albuquerque, gary, is spending tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars for something that should have never happened. you can control it in a less restrictive way. this case should have never happened. frankly, shame on albuquerque. >> so we move from albuquerque to california. this is a case over the host of the tonight show, jay leno. he's been sued over a joke he cracked about mitt romney. he's been sued by a bakersfield, california, man offended by a joke about a psych red temple that leno told in his monologue on thursday, january 19th. a little more than a week ago. first of all, l

how unusual is this, avery? >> well, it's unusual because there are only 26 states that have what is called the make my day law, the clint eastwood dirty harry approach to dealing with this. actually the facts were really more dramatic than this. both justin and dustin are banging on the door trying to get in because they think there are drugs in there. she has a 12-gauge shotgun, fredricka, ready to go as soon as he breaks down the door, which is what he did. she fires after guidance from the dispatcher, kills him. dustin runs to the police department, the cops grab him. now he is charged because of the murder, because of the killing of his compatriot. he is now facing very serious charges. >> so richard, was this a case of dustin when he went to the police department, he was thinking perhaps she would be held accountable for the death of his friend? was he fessing up? >> fred, he wasn't thinking anything. these two guys were loaded that evening. avery is right. >> they were allegedly both high on prescription

can a company do that, avery?ey can't do that. >> if there was a uniform involved, which is what the company was saying, there's a certain look that they want their waitresses to have. >> what is that look? >> one that would be belly baring because of the costume. >> hey, look, federal law requires that a employer reasonably accommodate an employee. the fact is that the plaintiff here in federal district court is now claiming that she can perform the job. she is a waitress. she is not a stripper, she is a waitress, and she can perform the job. and you want to know something? if hustler wants to change the uniform a little bit to accommodate, they can do it, but they are fighting this thing. they want her out. they don't want pregnant women in there. apparently they want to appeal to the people that like to see semi-nude women. well, that's too bad. judge colleen mcman, a federal judge in new york, has entered an order this week. there's a hearing coming up and i think she will prevail. >> richard, by federal law p

but jori's first child, her daughter avery, was born very early.he family's ordeal began with what jori thought was just a backache. >> i had a very normal pregnancy up until about 26 weeks. at 26 weeks-- it was a friday. i was at work. my back started to hurt. the back pain started to hurt more and more. then on the way home, it moved to the front, so it was kind of in my lower abdomen. we decided that we would go to the e.r. because it didn't seem like a normal backache at that point. >> mcfarland: doctors told jori she was fine and sent her home. but the pains continued throughout the weekend, and on monday, she went back to her doctor. >> i just still felt like something wasn't right. the pain was getting a lot worse. and so i told him anywhere between, like, 10 to 30 minutes, i would have these pains that would last anywhere from, like, 20 to 40 seconds. he said the baby was fine and that i could go home. >> mcfarland: when the pains continued the next day, the krischkes decided to go back to the e.r. and there it soon became clear that jori w

and this cannot be appealed to the board of supervisors unless miss avery produces a motion. i think that creates great legal uncertainty as to how the port commission can hear this without a motion and how kit appeal to the board of supervisors to create that space without a motion. so i would suggest that. >> is there additional public comment? >> good evening, madam president, commissioners, first and foremost, thank you so much for joining us on this journey. i'm monique moyer and it is my pleasure to serve as the director of the port of san francisco. the port of san francisco is san agency that is now 149 years old. it has assets that are older than everyone in this room by far and some of us like myself are already starting to feel that pain. we have been a city agency now for 40 years. it has been 50 years since an investment of this magnitude has been made in the port's assets. the port was build by the port, by the workers of the state of california with one exception the ferry building. every other pier, 55 of them were built by the men and women and the engineers
