Amell requested a Los Angeles court shut down Rescues Rock and force it to move from its Laurel Canyon location, but a judge ruled that Amell and his wife, Cassandra Jean, were “not likely to prevail” at a trial and even went so far as to say the public would “suffer greater harm” if the rescue had been moved.
The couple sued Rescues Rock in September, claiming defendants Kristen Stavola and Jeremy Gardiner were running a “large illegal animal kennel operation” on residential plots of land without a permit. They claimed the operation was a “substantial nuisance” that prevented them from enjoying their personal property.
