The city of Beverly Hills has settled an investigation after a battle over an abortion clinic, requiring it to train officials on abortion clinic protections, California Attorney General Rob Bonta announced Thursday.
California Attorney General Rob Bonta blasted the city of Beverly Hills in a press conference Thursday, accusing city officials of colluding to keep out a third-trimester abortion clinic last year. Bonta opened an investigation after DuPont Clinic accused Beverly Hills of conspiring with anti-abortion activists and pressuring its landlord to back out of a lease that would've allowed the reproductive healthcare provider to open an abortion clinic on Wilshire Blvd.
In a statement, Beverly Hills current mayor Lester Friedman said that the judgment contained no admission or finding or wrongdoing. 'The City cooperated fully with the Attorney General’s investigation, and the evidence presented demonstrated that the City did not interfere with the planned opening of the clinic and the decision to rescind DuPont Clinic’s lease was not made by the City of Beverly Hills,” Friedman said. “We disagree with the allegations in the Attorney General’s complaint.
