Adolph took city streets for about twenty blocks and had to stop frequently for red lights. Sajous asked the driver to take the Westside Highway, but Adolph responded, \"No.\" Sajous responded that she believed it was against the law for a taxi driver to refuse a request route. Adolph responded, \"I don't have to do anything for a Nigger,\" to which Paulini said, \"What did you say?\" The driver, in a much louder voice, then said, \"Now the Faggot got something to say.\" Plaintiffs immediately asked the driver to pull over and let them out, but he refused. Plaintiffs continue to protest, but the driver locked the doors. While stopped at a red light on the corner of 96th Street and Central Park West, Paulini unlocked the door, put one foot on the street, and told Sajous to get out and wait on the corner. The fare was approximately $19.50, and Paulini handed Adolph a $20.00 bill. Adolph refused to accept it, stating that since Plaintiffs made him trek all the way uptown, he was going to take them to their final destination to get the full fare. He said he was not inclined to pick up a fare going downtown from a \"filthy Nigger neighborhood.\" The driver eventually took the money, and Paulini requested a receipt, which the driver refused. Paulini said he would not get out until Adolph gave him a receipt. Eventually, Adolph gave them a receipt, told them he was going to call the police, and said, \"Who would believe a Nigger and a Faggot?\" Paulini exited the cab with the receipt showing payment of the fare. Paulini and Sajous proceeded toa nearby subway, paid the faire, waited on the platform. Four uniformed police officers, including Choi, Delrosario, Polanca, and Mitchell, came walking toward them and asked them to come upstairs. Adolph appeared at the top of the stairs and proceeded to berate Plaintiffs. Paulini offered a $20 bill, saying, \"Here if this makes you go away, please take it.\" Adolph took it, and Paulini said to Adolph and the officers that he had now paid twice. To show the receipt, Paulini put his hands in his pockets to retrieve it, and one of the Officers told him to never do that around an officer and handcuffed him. Paulini apologized and explained, and the Officer shoved him in the back of a police car. Paulini began recording on his cellphone in his pocket. Sajous asked why the officers were arrest Paulini and then she was handcuffed and placed in the police car as well. They were taken to the 24th Precinct. When Paulini later recovered his phone after pleading not guilty, he saw that the photos of the taxi medallion and recording had been deleted, but he had not deleted them. All charges against Plaintiffs were dismissed in November 2014.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nysd.447147/gov.uscourts.nysd.447147.7.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/13346923/paulini-v-the-city-of-new-york/"},{"officer_name":"Delrosario, Richard","disposition":"Settlement","start_date":"2013-06-11","disposition_date":"2014-06-25","court":"U.S. District Court - Southern District NY","docket":"13CV03970","name":"Roberts, Kasheena, et Al vs Police Officer Delrosario, Richard","payout_amount":67500,"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/4352296/roberts-v-delrosario/"}],"image":"https://www.50-a.org/images/officer/CLMX-richard-delrosario.jpg","payroll":{"salary":"109352","regular":"108510","overtime":"13188","other":"22493","total":"144192"},"id":"CLMX","url":"https://www.50-a.org/officer/CLMX"}
