Would This Fly in New York

Drudge has a link to an interesting story about an LA court that issued an order evicting everyone from a 24-unit housing complex. The development in question was a haven for drug dealing, shootings and robberies by the Crips gang. The property must be vacant for 90 days and can only be used in the future for commercial purposes with court approval. This kind of decision is apparently the first of its kind, but Base10 thinks it will not survive the appeals process in liberal LA.
