San Fernando Valley : RECALL RULING
The state Court of Appeals on Thursday denied a request to order the city of Agoura Hills to schedule a November recall election against City Councilwoman Fran Pavley.
In denying the appeal by the group trying to oust Pavley, the court ruled that an appeal filed earlier by the city must be heard before a recall election can take place.
The city wants the court to overturn Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Diane Wayne’s decision in June that upheld a recount of 94 recall petition signatures that had been deemed invalid. The recount allowed the recall petition to succeed, producing 2,436 valid signatures against Pavley, more than the 2,405 needed to force a recall election.
