Judge Tentatively Rules in Favor of La Jolla Cityhood Advocates
A San Diego judge has tentatively ruled in favor of the Association for the City of La Jolla in its ongoing legal battle with the city of San Diego over La Jolla’s potential cityhood.
The ruling by Superior Court Judge Judy Bae grants a motion from the cityhood advocates, arguing that a city lawsuit filed in June is a strategic lawsuit against public participation, or SLAPP.
“a meritless attempt to obstruct democratic participation and silence a public interest effort through costly litigation”
If the ruling is made final at a hearing scheduled for Friday, Oct. 24, the city’s suit would be dismissed and the cityhood process could move forward.
