Wall Street protests on March
21, 2012, Mary M. Tardif was

Square when an officer threw
her on the ground, she said,

the Southern District of New
York Judge Kimba M. Wood began
the trial. Inner City Press
went and covered it.
Tardif's lawyer, speaking from
COVID protocol glassed-in box,
told the jury about the
assault, then previewed some
of his client's brain injury
and evidence.
There was been
pre-trial motion practice
about which expert testimony

Coming in

hyperintensity. Plaintiff's
counsel on June 22 described
for the jury white matter
surrounded by gray matter.

al., 12-cv-4056 (Wood)
