Here Comes the Judge
“Carter is overseeing an agreement between Los Angeles city and county governments in a case brought by the L.A. Alliance for Human Rights, a group of downtown business owners and residents that sued to force the city to shelter homeless people. Carter is requiring the city to find temporary shelter or permanent housing (with the county footing the bill) for several thousand homeless people mostly those living under or near freeways, because the judge has decided that it’s unsafe to live near the toxic fumes from vehicles.”
