The Los Angeles City Council voted Wednesday to reinstate the salary of indicted Councilmember Mark Ridley-Thomas, more than a year after he was suspended from his post while facing federal corruption charges. Read the latest at
the city over that move earlier this year, saying it violated the City Charter and was politically motivated.
Ridley-Thomas, whose district stretches from Koreatown to the Crenshaw Corridor, will continue to receive his salary even if he remains suspended from his post. His trial is set for March and Hutt continues to represent the district. Galperin, who leaves office at the end of the week, did not immediately respond to a request for comment. In 2020, he said he would not compensate an elected official who was “legally unable to do his job.”Wednesday’s legal settlement has the potential to open the door for another legal challenge — this one by former Councilmember Jose Huizar, who is also facing federal corruption charges.
