COURTHOUSE,
Feb 7 –
When the City of New York's
proposed settlement of George
Floyd protest lawsuits was
challenged by the NYPD Police
Benevolent Association at a
hearing on January 29, Inner
City Press was there and live
tweeted, thread here:
[ending] PBA
lawyer Smith: The Mayor knows
something about policing
Judge: Mayor Adams hasn't
taken his name off the
settlement... PBA rep: He said
he had to take his lawyers'
advice Judge: Maybe they want
to avoid the M word PBA rep:
Is a monitor even being
considered?
Judge: I
will try to have something
else by next week.
On February 7,
Judge McMahon denied the PBA's
motion, and granted the
Settling Parties' motion to
dismiss it.
