SDNY
COURTHOUSE,
Feb 12 – Former NYC
Comptroller, now Congressional
candidate Brad Lander
was in the SDNY courthouse
again on February 12, on the
complaint following his
detention in 26 Federal Plaza.
Inner City Press was the first
media in the courtroom and
live tweeted:
All rise!
Magistrate Judge Ricardo:
Should we be scheduling a
trial? You're still
discussing discovery-
AUSA Ariel Cohen:
We'll give more discovery next
week. Our case would take half
a day. We're ready
Defense:
We're told there were no
operable cameras in the
elevators or the 30th floor
holding cell. Judge: You're
trying to use GSA regulations-
Defense: Absolutely. They have
to show that usual activities
were obstructed unreasonably
Judge
Ricardo: Could you obstruct me
from getting on the bench?
Defense: It depends Magistrate
Judge Ricardo: There are other
judges considering ICE, DHS -
Defense: Judge Kaplan
Defense: We
propose May 11 for trial,
March 4 for our motion. AUSA:
Schedule would be OK - but we
disagree on the law
Possible argument
April 14 at 2. Adjourned
