MB's Eisen Evicted
Manhattan Beach Unified School District trustee Bill Eisen -- currently the focus of a community effort to recall him from the school board he was elected to in 2005 -- was evicted from his home on Tuesday.
Eisen was ordered to leave his home by a U.S. bankruptcy court, concluding a decades-long battle that kicked off when he was first sued by creditors in the 1980s. A bankruptcy trustee intends to sell the trustee's Crest Drive home to pay off those creditors.
With the law requiring trustees be residents of the districts in which they serve, all eyes are on Eisen and where he may land in the wake of his eviction. The fledgling recall effort against him is moving into the signature-gathering phase, with the Committee to Recall Bill Eisen aiming for a November election.
