SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Nov 5 – The New Yorker
Hotel on Eighth Avenue by Penn
Station changed management in
February 2019.
It had
promised severance payments of
up to $200,000 to employees,
but these weren't paid.
Workers
sued.
On
November 5 U.S. District Court
for the Southern District of
New York Judge Edgardo Ramos
held a proceeding. Inner City
Press covered it.
Counsel for
both sides chimed it to
describe their communications
and attempts to mediate. Judge
Ramos politely said, That's
your business.
He set a next
formal proceeding for May 12,
2021, if the private mediation
does not work.
The case is Doran
et al v. The New Yorker Hotel
Management Company, Inc. et
al., 20-cv-4311 (Ramos)
