SDNY COURTHOUSE,
April 13 – David Hoffman took
a photograph of a man in a
wheelchair. Then when it was
reproduced without permission
on a website called
BoredomTherapy, he sued.
On April
13, U.S. District Court for
the Southern District of New
York Judge Analisa Torres held
a proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
Judge
Torres referred the case to
the SDNY's mediation program.
But, she
emphasized, this will not stay
discovery or the case. Fact
discovery ends August 11.
The case is
Hoffman v. Content IQ LLC,
21-cv-1305 (Torres)
