Inmate Sued For Fire In Rikers Island But Now No Law Library Due to Understaffing Crisis

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon
BBC - Guardian UK - Honduras - ESPN

SDNY COURTHOUSE, Oct 19 – Peter Rodriguez was in detention in the George R. Vierno Center on Rikers Island on January 13, 2021 when a fire subjected him to smoke. He sued.       

     On October 19 U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Gregory H. Woods held a proceeding. Inner City Press covered it. 

 Rodriguez said he'd like to move forward with the case but due to the crisis on Rikers Island he has no access to the law library.
 Judge Woods said fact discovery should be completed by March 17, 2022 and any motions by March 18.

The case is  Rodriguez v. City of New York et al., 21-cv-1384 (Woods)
