Los Angeles Times

A Los Angeles Times article about a federal judge’s decision not to put Los Angeles’s homelessness programs into receivership reports that the Gibson Dunn team representing the city argued that cities need broad latitude to determine the best strategies for addressing homelessness, that placing the programs in receivership would be a huge overreach, and that it was actually the plaintiff in the case — the LA Alliance for Human Rights — that had breached its agreement with the city, by failing to pause the agreement while Los Angeles responded to a major emergency: January’s Palisades fire.

The article also notes that our firm recently argued the Grants Pass case before the Supreme Court, securing a pivotal ruling that upheld laws regulating public encampments.
