SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Sept 30 – Karen Levy was hit
in the knee by a Union Square
Target's shopping cart, or
really 20 of them. She
sued.
On September 30,
U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Paul A. Engelmayer held
a proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
During the
public call, Target's counsel
conceded that Levy's version
of events might well be true.
The Target
employee at issue, pushing the
20 shopping carts, can no
longer be found.
Judge Engelmayer was
appreciative of the candor,
and reflected on what is
taught or mis-taught in 1L
torts.
He referred the
parties -- plaintiff's counsel
still unnamed in the docket as
of this writing - to
Magistrate Judge Robert W.
Lehrburger, who Judge
Engelmayer called "one of our
newer Magistrate Judges" but
one with an already formidable
record on settlements.
The case is Levy
v. Target Corporation,
20-cv-7023 (Engelmayer)
