A representative of Fix the City, the nonprofit group that filed the lawsuit, said the organization will file an appeal of the judge's ruling.
A judge handed a legal victory to the city of Los Angeles on Thursday, agreeing to dismiss a lawsuit that sought to strike down Mayor Karen Bass' declaration of a city emergency on homelessness and housing. L.A. Superior Court Judge Curtis A. Kin granted a request from the city's lawyers to toss the lawsuit from Fix the City, a Westside-based organization that had called the emergency declaration a 'vast and illegal expansion of mayoral power.
He also disagreed with Fix the City's assessment that the emergency declaration ran afoul of a law aimed at ensuring that local governments engage in competitive bidding. An aide to Bass did not immediately comment on the judge's decision. City Atty. Hydee Feldstein Soto, in a statement, said she is 'pleased' her office succeeded in defending the homeless emergency ordinance.
