SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Nov 28 –
Andrew
Dowd and
George
Constantine
face trial on
November 28,
on charges
springing from
a slip and
fall fraud
scheme. Inner
City Press has
been covering
the case and
will report on
the
trial.
On
November 25,
2022, U.S.
District Court
for the
Southern
District of
New York Judge
Sidney H.
Stein received
an argument to
limit
cross-examination
of a
government
Witness-12,
consistent
with
limitations he
imposed in US
v. Bryan
Duncan,
another case
covered by
Inner City
Press.
The
government
wrote, "The
Court should
preclude
cross-examination
on the limited
fact that
Witness-12's
2021
conviction
involved the
attempted
possession of
a firearm
because it is
... high
prejudicial
and risks
inflaming the
jury,
consistent
with the
ruling of the
Court in US
v. Bryan
Duncan,
18-cr-289
(SHW).
Kalkanis from
that trial
will figure in
this one.
On
November 28,
Inner City
Press was in
the courtroom
at 5 pm when
the 16 jurors
(four are
alternates)
were selected,
and again
after they
left when, in
ruling in
motions in
limine, Judge
Stein excluded
amended tax
returns as
remedial and
irrelevant.
But what about
legitimate
slip and fall
patients?
Watch this
site.
The
case is US v.
Constantine,
et al.,
21-cr-530
(Stein).
