SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Dec 10 – Aliyah Baker sued New
York City for NYPD officers
assaulting her while she
mourned the death of her 17
year old
niece.
On
September 17 U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
Alvin K. Hellerstein held a
proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
The parties said
they're ready for trial. Judge
Hellerstein reminded them that
amid COVID the SDNY has, he
said, only four court rooms
for jury trials. He referred
the case to Magistrate Judge
Debra C. Freeman for a
settlement.
On December 10,
Judge Hellerstein held another
status conference in the case.
The parties had informed him
of a desire to proceed to
trial. So he picked a trial
date - October 17, 2022, with
a final pre-trial conference
set for October 12.
The case is Baker
v. City of New York, et al.,
19-cv-8141 (Hellerstein)
