In Auburn, WA, a lawsuit has been filed for $1,000,000 against the city regarding new breed-specific legislation.
"The damage claim contends the Auburn ordinance unfairly classifies owners of the specific breeds of dogs
as owners of potentially dangerous dogs without any proof they are dangerous. That, he said, is a violation of the
14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution by not allowing owners access to courts to make a determination
if the dog is dangerous. … Plaintiffs will bring forth strong evidence at trial to prove (the city) acted out
of malice and intentional negligence in selecting specific breeds, according to the damage claim."
