City Attorney of San Francisco files preliminary injunction

City Attorney Dennis Herrera filed a motion for a preliminary injunction against the closure of City College of San Francisco.   It states:

SAN FRANCISCO (Nov. 25, 2013) -- City Attorney Dennis Herrera today moved for a preliminary injunction to block the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges, or ACCJC, from racing to terminate the accreditation of City College of San Francisco in eight months' time. The motion filed in San Francisco Superior Court this morning comes in the context of the civil lawsuit Herrera filed in August charging the private accrediting body with unlawful conflicts of interest and retaliatory bias in its evaluation of college standards. If successful, the interim injunction would remain in place for the duration of the litigation, and also prevent the Novato, Calif.-based ACCJC from taking similarly adverse actions against other California colleges until its policies and practices fully comply with state and federal law.
