Case Summary

On December 7, 2020, four private individuals who attended racial justice protests in the Mott Haven neighborhood of the Bronx filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against the City of New York, the New York City Police Department (the NYPD), City officials, and police officers in their individual capacities. The plaintiffs brought this action on behalf of themselves and a putative class under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 to remedy violations of their First, Fourth, a…

The complaint alleged that on June 4, 2020, the defendants intimidated, assaulted, and unlawfully arrested protesters in Mott Haven in order to suppress their calls for racial justice and police reform. Specifically, the NYPD, with the approval of City officials, used a police maneuver known as “kettling” to surround peaceful protesters with police officers, entrap them in a small area, and arrest them. The “kettled” protesters were pushed tightly together while officers with batons and shields struck people on the edges and pulled down face masks to pepper spray protesters directly in the face, leaving many injured and causing some to faint or lose consciousness. The complaint also alleged that officers violently threw protesters to the ground while arresting them, and when cuffing the protesters, the officers cinched the zip-tie cuffs so tightly that protesters’ hands turned purple and numb. Once in custody, protesters were held for anywhere between 6 and 20 hours. The plaintiffs further alleged that, despite the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, police officers responding to protests frequently failed to wear masks or to assist cuffed protesters in covering their noses and mouths, exposing protesters to a heightened risk of contracting COVID-19.

The complaint further alleged that the events in Mott Haven were not unique. It referenced Gelbard v. City of New York, 1:20-cv-03163, and Payne v. de Blasio in asserting that the NYPD’s actions had been replicated at other racial justice protests. The complaint also alleged that the actions of the NYPD on June 4 had been endorsed by City officials in public statements leading up to the protests.

The case was originally assigned to Judge J. Paul Oetken. In February 2021, the case was accepted as related to other police conduct cases filed after the 2020 racial justice protests and reassigned to Judge Colleen McMahon and Magistrate Judge Gabriel W. Gorenstein. It was officially consolidated with the other protest cases in April 2021, captioned as In re: New York City Policing During Summer 2020 Demonstrations. For discovery-related filings in all cases, as well as the district court’s decisions on consolidated motions, visit that entry in the Clearinghouse.

In early March 2021, the Police Benevolent Association of the City of New York, the Sergeants’ Benevolent Association of New York City, and the Detectives’ Endowment Association of New York City moved to intervene in some or all of the consolidated cases. On April 28, 2021, Judge McMahon denied all three of the unions’ motions to intervene without prejudice for renewal, reasoning that until the litigation reached a point at which a settlement or injunctive relief was more than merely speculative, the unions were not facing any “practical impact” sufficient to warrant intervention. The PBA appealed. On March 4, 2022, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit affirmed in part and reversed in part the trial court’s decision, holding that the PBA’s interest in officer safety was a cognizable interest that warranted intervention in the actions seeking declaratory and injunctive relief, but not in the actions seeking monetary damages only. On remand, the trial court was instructed to grant the PBA’s motion to intervene. The motion was granted in June 2022.

While the unions’ appeal was pending before the Second Circuit, the case proceeded through discovery at the district court level. On July 9, 2021, Judge McMahon granted in part and denied in part the defendants’ motion to dismiss the amended complaints in the consolidated action. All claims against Mayor de Blasio, Police Commissioner Shea, and Police Chief Monahan in their official capacities were dismissed as redundant in the face of the claims made against the municipality. Judge McMahon also dismissed all claims against Commissioner Shea in his individual capacity, citing a lack of any indication in the record that he was personally involved in violating the plaintiffs’ constitutional rights. The court further held that the curfew orders issued and enforced by the City during the protests were lawful, and therefore dismissed all of the claims made by the Sow v. City of New York plaintiffs relating to the curfew. The court denied the motion as to the remaining claims in all cases and allowed those claims to proceed.

Mediation conferences began in July 2022. On September 15, 2022, the court granted the plaintiffs’ motion to file a consolidated and amended class action complaint. The amended complaint added additional allegations of the NYPD’s long history of racially-biased policing and indifference to bias in the police department, despite a 2019 report that recommended the NYPD amend its policies around the reporting and investigation of biased policing. The amended complaint also added causes of action under state law for false arrest and false imprisonment; assault and battery; denial of medical attention; intentional or negligent infliction of emotional distress; negligent hiring, screening, retention, training, supervision, and discipline; and excessive detention.

On February 28, 2023, the plaintiffs filed a memorandum of law in support of their motion for approval of a class settlement in this case as well as Wood v. de Blasio. On March 2, 2023, the court entered an order preliminary approving the settlement, conditionally certifying the class, appointing class counsel and a class administrator, and approving the parties’ proposed class settlement notice procedure.

On October 17, 2023, the plaintiffs’ filed a motion for final approval of the class action settlement, final certification of the settlement class, determination that the notice to the class was consistent with the court’s preliminary approval order, approval of service award payments, and approval of class counsel’s attorneys’ fees and costs through March 3, 2023. The court granted the plaintiffs’ motion October 25, 2023. 2023 WL 7014389. The settlement class was defined as all persons who were detained, arrested, and/or subjected to force by police officers on June 4, 2020, on East 136th Street between Brook Avenue and Brown Place in the Bronx during the “George Floyd protest” in Mott Haven, and all persons who were given a summons or Desk Appearance Ticket following their arrest at that location. Class members were ordered to each receive $21,500, and class members who received a desk appearance ticket during the 2020 protests received an extra $2,500. The court also approved the payment of $21,5000 to each of the named plaintiffs, as service awards, separate and apart from the awards they will receive as class members. Additionally, the City was ordered to pay $2.25 million to class counsels for their reasonable fees and costs through March 3, 2023. Here, the total settlement payout, including class payments, service awards, and attorneys’ fees through March 3, 2023, was approximately $7 million. Finally, the court referred three putative class members to Magistrate Judge Gorenstein for a determination of their status as class members. The parties agreed that they will abide by Judge Gorenstein’s determination, which shall be final and binding.

On January 17, 2024, the court granted an applicant’s motion to participate in the settlement due to the unique circumstances of the individual’s situation. As of February 13, 2023, the case remains ongoing, pending Judge Gorenstein’s determination of claimants’ status as class members.
