Appeals court halts construction at Berkeley’s People’s Park

FILE - A protester uses bolt cutters to take down part of the fence that the University of California, Berkeley, erected around historic People's Park, Aug. 3, 2022, so a construction crew could begin work on a long-planned student housing project in Berkeley, Calif. Construction of student housing at the historic People's Park is on hold after an appellate court ordered an injunction late Thursday, Aug. 4, 2022. The temporary injunction came a day after protesters forced the University of California, Berkeley, to halt work on the controversial project.
