On March 24, 2008, the ADDA became the certified bargaining representative of the Deputy District Attorneys of the County of Los Angeles. At that time the Union asserted its rights to bargain regarding material issues affecting its members. On August 20, 2010 the rights were affirmed in a ruling repealing the current performance evaluation process. We have been vindicated. (Read the Decision)
Under new leadership ADDA members assert rights fundamental to American Freedom.
ADDA is the independent employee organization of the Deputy District Attorneys of the County of Los Angeles. Its mission is to promote the betterment of our labor force and provide a voice for the collective needs of its members. To that end ADDA fosters promotion of ideas and legislation geared at improving the criminal justice system, provides a means of effective labor relations with the County of Los Angeles, and establishes a communications link between the membership, the County, and the community at large.
Effective May 4, 2010, Hyatt Seligman will assume the position of President of the ADDA. Seligman pledges to establish much closer contact with District Attorney Cooley, end the rancor and settle outstanding contract issues to establish a fair Memorandum of Understanding between the administration and the ADDA.

On March 2, 2010 a Federal Court ruled that the ADDA had "established a course of explicit retaliation... that is both striking and rampant." Read the Judge's Order and examine how hard the struggle can be. You can also watch the CBS News account of the court's ruling by clicking here.
It is imperative that effective communication between the Board and all deputies is established. Members will receive updates in by personal email. Please ensure that the ADDA has your personal email address by sending it through the Contact Page.
As always, your ADDA a looks forward to serving as your conduit to solid labor management communications.
