Feb 3: DDDB In Court Seeking Sanctions and Legal Fees From ESDC
Develop Don't Destroy Brooklyn
On Thursday, February 3, at 9:30 a.m., New York State Supreme Court Justice Marcy Friedman will hear argument on the motion of Develop Don't Destroy Brooklyn to require the Empire State Development Corporation and Forest City Ratner, and their lawyers, to pay DDDB for the costs of the additional legal work which DDDB's lawyers had to perform because ESDC and FCR improperly withheld a key contract from the court last year.
We strongly encourage you, as a DDDB supporter, to attend the hearing on Thursday. A grassroots organization such as ours should not be forced to suffer financial consequences because of the misconduct of a state agency.
...Details:
Thursday, February 3rd. 9:30 AM
New York County Supreme Court
60 Centre Street [Map]
Room 335
