Beverly Hills officials have filed a lawsuit against the estate of a late resident whose condominium was discovered filled with severe hoarding debris and human waste. The city is seeking a court order to remediate the hazardous conditions, which threaten neighboring residents and others.
According to the public nuisance action filed in Santa Monica Superior Court, the true names and capacities of Elizabeth Linda Paterson's estate members remain unknown, though pleadings will be updated once details become available. The city has not identified a probate proceeding or authorized personal representative besides Paterson.
