MALDEF files suit against Bellflower

July 14, 2014

On 7/14/2014, the firm, along with MALDEF and the Law Offices of Robert Rubin, sued the City of Bellflower for violating the California Voting Rights Act of 2001 (“CVRA”). The lawsuit challenges Bellflower’s use of an at-large method to elect its Council Members, which has denied Latino and African American residents the opportunity to elect Council Members of their choice.
