We cannot tell you if you have a case to file -- we don't serve as your counsel and cannot render decisions simply based on your words.  If you think he is committing crimes and is also breaching his contracts, committing tax evasion, committing labor law violations and committing violations of the Alcohol Bureau, try the following:

1. www.attorneypages.com to locate a business attorney to help sue on your behalf.  Check the lawyer's disciplinary record at www.calbar.ca.gov under attorney search.

2. Contact the California Dept of Industrial Relations regarding the labor law violations: http://www.dir.ca.gov/

3. Contact the IRS and Calfiornia Franchise Tax Board on tax issues: www.irs.gov and http://www.ftb.ca.gov/aboutFTB/index.shtml

4. Further, try the California Attorney General for criminal investigation.

5. You may also wish to contact the California Alcohol Beverage Control for ABC violations: http://www.abc.ca.gov/
