SignOnSanDiego.com > News > Metro -- Order lets seals stay at cove till mid-2009: "LA JOLLA – Score one for the harbor seals in the legal chess match over their La Jolla beach home.

Animal-rights advocates yesterday won what amounts to a stop-work order at the cove, where more than 100 seals live, effectively preventing San Diego officials from harassing or dispersing the animals until the middle of 2009.

“The seals have been given a reprieve, and they will be able to relax,” said Bryan Pease, a San Diego attorney who filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of a nonprofit called La Jolla Friends of the Seals."
