Burlesque Enterprise v. City of Los Angeles CA2/1
Burlesque Enterprise, Inc. (Burlesque) appeals from the trial court’s judgment following an order denying Burlesque’s petition for a writ of administrative mandate made pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure section 1094.5.
Burlesque argues the trial court erred in denying its petition. It contends the decision of the Board of Police Commissioners of the City of Los Angeles (the Board) and the City of Los Angeles (collectively, the City) to revoke and confiscate, without any hearing, the Police Commission Permit (permit) necessary for Burlesque’s adult entertainment business violated its due process rights. Burlesque also argues that the City is estopped from revoking its permit because the City had granted and renewed its permit since 2008. Finally, Burlesque argues that if section 1094.5 was not the correct vehicle to seek judicial review of the City’s actions, we should construe its petition as one for a traditional writ of mandate under section 1085.
