LOS ANGELES—A temporary restraining order barring Herb Wesson from performing any official Los Angeles City Council duties in place of suspended Councilman Mark Ridley-Thomas will remain in place for now, while a judge considers whether to issue a preliminary injunction he said Aug. 17 that he’s inclined to grant.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Mitchell Beckloff heard arguments on the issue Wednesday morning, but took the matter under submission, saying only that he'll rule shortly. It was unclear when that might happen.
