Docket Description: Stay order filed.; Notes: On September 22, 2021, petitioner filed a "Petition for Writ of Administrative Mandamus & and Traditional Mandamus & and Request for Emergency Stay of Execution/Destruction." He alleges the City of Visalia Animal Services has wrongfully designated his dog, Thor (Thor), as a dangerous animal and plans to euthanize Thor as soon as September 24, 2021. Petitioner previously filed a writ of mandate in the Tulare County Superior Court, which was denied. Any administrative decision of the City of Visalia Animal Services declaring Thor a dangerous animal is temporarily stayed. The agency is enjoined from euthanizing Thor, and he shall remain in his current place of custody, pending determination of this action or further order of this court. Petitioner is directed to file with this court, no later than September 30, 2021, copies of the City of Visalia Animal Services' administrative decision, the petition for writ of mandate and any response filed in the trial court, and the trial court's order denying the petition for writ of mandate. The failure to timely respond will be deemed agreement the petition should be denied. The Clerk/Executive Officer of the Court is directed to provide a copy of this order to the Tulare County Superior Court. Hill, P. J.
