In the United States House of Representatives, Los Angeles County is divide between 18 congressional districts:[57] In the California State Senate, Los Angeles Canton is split between xv legislative districts:[58] In the California State Assembly, Los Angeles County is split between 24 legislative districts:[59]

On Nov four, 2008, Los Angeles County was almost evenly split over Proposition 8, which amended the California Constitution to ban same-sex marriages. The canton voted for the amendment 50.04% with a margin of 2,385 votes.[threescore]

Legal arrangement [edit]

The Los Angeles Canton Superior Courtroom is the county's court of full general jurisdiction, while the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California may hear cases where federal jurisdiction is present. Both are headquartered in a large cluster of government buildings in the city'south Civic Middle.

Historically, the courthouses were county-endemic buildings that were maintained at county expense, which created significant friction since the trial court judges, as officials of the country government, had to lobby the county Board of Supervisors for facility renovations and upgrades. In plow, the state judiciary successfully persuaded the country Legislature to authorize the transfer of all courthouses to the state regime in 2008 and 2009 (and so that judges would have direct control over their ain courthouses). Courthouse security is still provided by the county regime nether a contract with the land.

Unlike the largest city in the United States, New York Urban center, all of the urban center of Los Angeles and virtually of its important suburbs are located inside a single canton. As a issue, both the county superior courtroom and the federal district court are respectively the busiest courts of their type in the nation.[61] [62]

Many celebrities have been seen in Los Angeles courts. In 2003, the tv set show Actress (based in nearby Glendale) found itself running so many reports on the legal issues of local celebrities that it spun them off into a carve up evidence, Celebrity Justice.

Land cases are appealed to the Court of Entreatment for the Second Appellate District, which is also headquartered in the Civic Middle, and and then to the California Supreme Court, which is headquartered in San Francisco but likewise hears argument in Los Angeles (once again, in the Civic Center). Federal cases are appealed to the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Excursion, which hears them at its co-operative building in Pasadena. The court of last resort for federal cases is the U.Southward. Supreme Court in Washington, D.C.
