According to Dr Shirley Moore the court house is not public property but in fact is owned and then rented out to the County by the Los Angeles Judges Association.
I wonder if the judges also own the new court yard that is being built with taxpayer money?

Find out about KILLER judges like Aviva Koenigsberg Bobb who fled the bench pretending to retire after (2) people died directly due to her actions. Its judges like this who lie, cheat and pretend to obey our laws yet they act above the law. Aviva K. Bobb was directly responsible for influencing police to arrest an innocent man who was only exposing Bobb for her crimes and abuse see http://www.estateofdenial.com/2011/03/22/police-involvement-in-conservatorship-issues/ See more evidence on the death of a child and Lee Peters by Aviva K. Bobb at avivakbobb.com These are fully documented cases about just one judge. This is going on with hundreds of judges. Americans we should all be outraged at what is going on. The lies, the crimes, no ethics, morals or honesty among these lawyers who claim to be honorable.
