Judge Carter Ruling in Federal Homeless Lawsuit
Today, April 20, 2021, U.S. District Court Judge David O. Carter issued a preliminary injunction in the federal lawsuit, LAAlliance for Human Rights v. City of Los Angeles, et al.
The Judge made the following order on p. 107 with respect to land potentially available to house the homeless:
“Within 30 days, City Controller Ron Galperin shall oversee the
creation of a report on all land potentially available within each
district for housing and sheltering the homeless of each district.
The homeless have been left no other place to turn to but our beaches, parks, libraries, and sidewalks, and it is pivotal that they no longer rely on spaces that enhance quality of life for all citizens.” [Emphasis added.]
