Billionaire owners of Marilyn Monroe's Brentwood home sue LA to block historic-culture landmark designation, accusing city officials of unconstitutional conduct.

The owner of Marilyn Monroe's former Brentwood home has sued the City of Los Angeles to block its historic-culture landmark designation, which would prevent demolition. The lawsuit, filed by the property's billionaire owners, accuses city officials of unconstitutional conduct and backroom machinations in an attempt to preserve the house, which they argue does not meet the criteria for an historic cultural monument. Marilyn Monroe resided in the home for six months before her tragic suicide 61 years ago.
