One fled when approached, dropping a weapon during the pursuit.  After Defendant Office Douglass Carr created a photo array, Defendant Goris picked Plaintiff’s photo from it as the fleeing black man.  \n\nPlaintiff voluntarily surrendered.  He was held for more than 24 hours before arraignment, then selected from an in person lineup by Defendants Garcia and Goris.  Plaintiff was arrested, charged with felony gun possession, arraigned, and released on his own recognizance.   Defense counsel established during discovery that Plaintiff’s cell phone was miles away, there were alibi witnesses, and the DNA on the gun did not match Plaintiff, but notwithstanding these facts the Kings County DA continued to press charges.  Finally, in late 2013 a new ADA was assigned.  Upon a review of the evidence in court, including the admission that the photo used in lineup had been viewed by Defendant Goris prior to the lineup, all charges were dismissed on December 6, 2013","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nyed.362024/gov.uscourts.nyed.362024.1.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/13241885/carr-v-the-city-of-new-york/"},{"name":"Robertson, Darrin vs City of New York, et al.","start_date":"2013-07-23","disposition_date":"2014-06-06","payout_amount":20000,"disposition":"Settlement","docket":"13CV03852","court":"U.S. District Court - Eastern District NY","officer_name":"Garcia, Jerry R.","summary":"On March 2, 2012, Defendants OFFICER DEVEN OKVIST, OFFICER ROMAN GORIS and CAPTAIN JERRY GARCIA entered Plaintiffs sisters store and requested access to a private area.
