Update: No new arguments in Yards case

The Brooklyn Paper
Gersh Kuntzman

After Judge Edward Korman recused himself citing a pro-Atlantic Yards postcard he once filled out, opponents of the 16-skyscraper, arena, hotel, commercial and residential mega-project called for a new hearing so that replacement Judge Dennis Jacobs could fully immerse himself in the arguments.

That motion was denied on Tuesday, but not reported until Friday in the New York Law Journal.

The newly reconstituted panel is expected to rule soon on the case, which centers on the state’s use of eminent domain to seize privately owned properties and give them to Ratner.
