Workers' compensation insurance is a type of insurance that your employer purchases in order to pay for your medical bills and lost wages in the event that you are injured while on the job. This insurance plan covers your medical bills, and will pay you 70% of you average weekly wage if you are unable to work. 

If your employer carries workers' compensation insurance they are providing you with adequate financial assistance for your injuries, HOWEVER they are also limiting their liability. By carrying the state run workers' comp plan, your employer gets nearly complete immunity from a lawsuit in exchange for providing you with workers compensation benefits. Simply put, you cannot sue your employer IF they carry workers compensation insurance.

A ragtag gang of teens teams up with a neighboring girl gang when a major cartel moves into town, threatening their families, their turf, and the community they've worked so hard to protect. ***** Cash West formed the Seven 20s - a gang of six overzealous teens with guns - to keep his tiny, crime-infested town in nowhere California safe. His methods are unorthodox and frankly illegal, but the town loves his Robin Hood heroics. However, the gang gets more than they bargained for when the Mendoza cartel rolls into town, determined to knock them off the map. As the threat hits closer to home, Cash has no choice but to team up with his ex-girlfriend Tiana's neighboring girl gang, the Hearts of Spades. Soon allies become enemies, families get trapped in the crossfire, and romance brews as Cash fights to unravel a massive conspiracy that puts everyone that matters to him at risk. When the stakes are life and death, will the gangs be able to overcome an enemy more powerful than any of them could have predicted?
