Aleshire & Wynder Secures Another Court Victory Protecting Local Control and Charter Rights

Orange County Superior Court Ruling Upholds Charter City Rights Against State Challenge

Aleshire & Wynder has a strong reputation for defending the rights of charter cities under the California Constitution. We are proud to share another significant victory in the Orange County Superior Court. The case involved a lawsuit brought by the California Attorney General and the California Secretary of State against the City of Huntington Beach, challenging a charter amendment related to municipal election procedures. The State sought to retroactively preempt the voter-approved amendment through legislation passed after the fact. This victory is yet another example of our firm’s continued success in protecting local control and the will of voters throughout California.
