SDNY COURTHOUSE,
May 17 – Elvis Peralta
sued the City of New York and
police officers for arresting
him in an apartment in 1141
Tiffany Street in The Bronx on
July 13,
2017.
On May 17, U.S. District Court
for the Southern District of
New York Judge John G. Koeltl
held a conference. Inner City
Press covered it.
The City is
arguing that Peralta signed a
general release which
precludes the lawsuit. Judge
Koeltl gave the City until
June 17 to file a motion for
summary judgment, and stayed
discovery pending his ruling
on that motion.
The case is
Peralta v. City of New York et
al., 19-cv-7565 (Koeltl)
