(CN) A Los Angeles city attorney told a Ninth Circuit panel Wednesday a federal judge’s far-reaching injunction in a lawsuit over homelessness in the region is impeding elected officials’ efforts to address the complex crisis.
The city and county of Los Angeles are the targets of a lawsuit by an association of property owners, developers and homeless people seeking a court-mandated plan to place homeless people in some form of shelter by the fall.
Plaintiff L.A. Alliance for Human Rights also seeks a strategy for reducing unhoused encampments in the region and swift construction of more shelter and housing options.

Oral arguments clocked in at a little less than an hour on Wednesday in a case with the potential to freeze $1 billion in government spending and shake up homelessness policy across the region.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals heard a challenge from the city and county of Los Angeles, which are trying to overturn
a sweeping injunction issued by U.S. District Judge David O. Carter that would compel the local governments to offer shelter to everyone on Skid Row by mid-October. Los Angeles Community Action Network (
LA CAN) is a third party intervenor in the case, also asking the appeals court to vacate the order.
