SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Aug 16 – In the murky
case of "ABC v. DEF" on July
21 U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Paul A. Engelmayer held
a proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
Judge Engelmayer to his credit
pushed back at the failure to
specify what witness Rosado
(seemingly, "SPO Richard
Rosado") would say. But he
also agreed to allow
redactions to the witness
list.
He
specified that summaries of
proposed testimony are due on
July 24 - while setting the
trial far out, for March 8,
2021.
Next a "List of
Witnesses" - for a presumably
public trial -- was filed. But
on Pacer for the Press it
says, "You do not have
permission to view this
document." So who does? Now
this:
"OPINION &
ORDER re: [392] MOTION in
Limine Plaintiffs' Motion In
Limine to Exclude Evidence of
John Doe's Special Parole
Condition No. 13. filed by
ABC, [405] MOTION in Limine
Plaintiffs' Motion in Limine
to Exclude the Proposed
Testimony of Defendants Scott
and Cappiello. filed by ABC.
Plaintiffs' pending motions in
limine are granted in full.
Evidence that Doe was
separated from M.S. because of
defendants' application of
Special Condition 13 will not
be admitted at the upcoming
damages trial. Nor will the
proposed testimony of Emily
Scott or James Cappiello. The
Clerk of Court is respectfully
directed to terminate the
motions pending at dockets 392
and 405. SO ORDERED. (Signed
by Judge Paul A. Engelmayer on
8/14/20)."
The case remains
captioned as ABC v. DEF,
14-cv-2953
(Engelmayer)
