This is monumental for the city.

In a brief filed Monday morning, attorneys for the city told the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals that U.S. District Judge David O. Carter had made a litany of errors in overseeing the settlement - in which the city committed to providing housing or shelter for 12,915 people and clearing 9,800 tents, vehicles and makeshift shelters - and asked that it reverse many of his rulings But they said that alone would be insufficient.

In May 2026 my father will be turning 95 years old! We, his three children, wish to throw him a party for about 12 people. Some guests will be elderly with walkers and canes. We would love to host this on a budget and preferably either in the San Fernando Valley or on the Westside. If it really fits the bill, we would consider other parts of Los Angeles as well. Maybe a lovely patio or some sort of charming restaurant that harks back to another time that my father would enjoy.

Leaning into the LA love, we took a look through some of our favorite Los Angeles Open Door tours to highlight different neighborhoods, from Ellen Pompeo's midcentury escape on a bluff in Malibu to John Legend and Chrissy Teigen's palatial spread in Beverly Hills. Read on for a set of stunning Los Angeles Open Doors videos that just might have you dreaming of ditching the cold and heading west to the vibrant, resilient City of Angels (and celebrities).

The night before Music's Biggest Night, Pitchfork continued its streak of ringing in the new year with fun, undeniably risk-averse things we've never done before. At El Cid, a historic open-air venue in LA, we threw our first-ever Best New Music party in collaboration with Hennessy. Co-hosted by PinkPantheress, FKA twigs, Kaytranada, Perfume Genius, and Pitchfork editor Mano Sundaresan, the party brimmed with talented artists shaping the future of music.

When Sam Dean, a journalist and author, learned Condé Nast had allowed the Gourmet trademark to expire, he snatched it up for himself and - along with four co-founders - relaunched it this month as a newsletter. They moved up the debut to coincide with the New Year and a New York Times piece announcing the project, which overlapped with a trip Dean had planned.

Last week, he opened a $230-million movie and television studio on the edge of the Arts District in downtown Los Angeles nestled alongside the dramatic new Sixth Street Bridge. The state-of-the-art complex has five sound stages, offices and other proper movie studio features such as a mill, commissary and base camp. "We just had all the major networks, all the major streaming platforms walk through this facility and they can't believe how nice it is," said Wainright, managing partner of East End Studios.

In ChertLüdde, evocations abound: the show is a transcription of California (I've never been, but I imagine it to be sun drenched and a bit dehydrated), which is transposed onto the grid of the gallery in Schöneberg. Shells, dried stalks, bits of pottery, sea urchins, art left behind by visitors, are arranged on a stage (a duplication of the one found in Horvitz's garden in Los Angeles),

Los Angeles police are searching for two suspects who they say opened fire on a line of people outside a Manchester Square restaurant on Sunday evening, leaving one man dead and four wounded. Four of the victims were rushed via ambulance to a nearby hospital, where one - a 36-year-old man whose name hasn't been released - was pronounced dead, according to an internal Los Angeles Police Department bulletin.

This weekend, I stood on a bluff in the Palisades where houses used to be. Los Angeles rose to my left, and the sky had the dramatic clouds we get in the winter when it rains, as it has for a few weeks. The hillsides have turned to Irish green, but the burn scar, below, is still black. Twice, when my family drove past during the holidays, our phones blared with evacuation alerts for possible mudslides and flooding.

Pijja Palace flipped the concept of a sports bar on its head with Indian flavor-infused bar food favorites and a vibe that gives more mid-century modern than sticky floors and too-loud baseball games. Televisions dot the walls playing whatever sport is on - whether it be football or a skateboarding competition - as tikka masala-topped pijjas and achaari Buffalo wings emerge from the kitchen.

Slaughter's 18-month-old son was found after a 911 caller reported an attempted car theft in the 300 block of North Avenue 52 around 10 a.m. Sunday, police said. The victim said the male suspect fled the area on foot and that the toddler and dog were left behind in the vehicle. The Department of Child and Family Services took temporary custody of the child, while the dog was collected by Los Angeles Animal Services.

Located on a street corner in the Fashion District, their space, which doubles as a man cave, reflects their creative influences, their ties to L.A. and their offbeat sense of humor. Before they moved in 2021, the place was a shoe store called Latino Fashion - the storefront sign remains. Walk in and you'll find the bottom half of a mannequin flaunting male genitalia ("That was our stunt penis from [the short film] 'Shut Up and Fish,'" says Sanchez laughing).

Police used geotracking, cellphone data and surveillance cameras to locate Nick Reiner hours after his parents were found fatally stabbed Sunday morning in Brentwood. The suspect, who struggled with substance abuse and had argued with his parents at a holiday party, was arrested in South Los Angeles that night. It didn't take long for police to focus on Nick Reiner after his parents were found fatally stabbed in the master bedroom of their Brentwood home Sunday afternoon. The challenge became finding him. Reiner lived in Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner's guesthouse but was not there when police arrived around 3:30 p.m. Prosecutors now allege he killed his parents sometime early Sunday.

Where does Joe Jonas live? These days, the "Cake by the Ocean" singer resides in a luxury apartment in Brooklyn, New York. But the singer's first piece of real estate was a joint effort. A 19-year-old Jonas and his brothers, Nick and Kevin, bought a ranch in Westlake, Texas, in 2008-three years after forming their eponymous band, the Jonas Brothers. In between, he's bought and sold several California properties, plus a dreamy Miami manse.

Nick Reiner, 32, was arrested several hours after the bodies of his father, 78, and mother, 70, were discovered on Sunday afternoon in the couple's house in the affluent west LA neighbourhood of Brentwood.

Dozens of California National Guard troops under President Trump's command apparently slipped out of Los Angeles under cover of darkness early Sunday morning, ahead of an appellate court's order to be gone by noon Monday. Administration officials would not immediately confirm whether the troops had decamped. But video taken outside the Roybal Federal Building downtown just after midnight on Sunday and reviewed by The Times shows a large tactical truck and four white passenger vans leaving the facility

When it comes to grocery shopping, finding a reliable source of meals and good deals can be more difficult in some cities than others. Los Angeles is known for many things - including a high cost of living and being home to many popular West coast grocery store chains. But looking around Reddit, the prevailing opinion about which is the cheapest points largely to Grocery Outlet.
