Bel-Air residents file lawsuit against Mohamed Hadid and the City of Los Angeles: Suing City to enforce its own 2015 order that directed Hadid to demolish it
The lawsuit details the extraordinary danger posed by the still-unfinished project, which has already triggered multiple landslides and mudslides onto the property of neighbors downslope as well as Hadid's audacious efforts to conceal his work from City Inspectors. The lawsuit calls on the City to enforce its own previous order from April 2015 requiring the project's demolition to restore the safety of the neighborhood.
