Plaintiff was transported to the 114th Precinct, where Defendant Salvatore DiMaggio processed his arrest, supervised by Defendant Andrew Chin, issuing a DAT to plaintiff and clearing him for release. Plaintiff signed and received this at 4:38am on November 11, but Defendants DiMaggio & Chin unreasonably delayed his release, continuing to imprison him in a cell until 9:45am. Defendant DiMaggio informed him that he was being held for questioning by a detective and that this was standard practice. At 9:30am, Plaintiff was taken out of his cell for questioning by Defendant Detective DeJesus regarding crimes in the neighborhood and whether Plaintiff had guns in his home. Plaintiff repeatedly informed him he had no such information, and he was released at 9:45am.\n\nThis is a class action suit, seeking remedies for the excessive detention of plaintiffs by the 114th Precinct pursuant to an unconstitutional written policy (Procedure No: 210-18).","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nyed.435267/gov.uscourts.nyed.435267.13.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/15870524/zarkower-v-city-of-new-york/"},{"name":"Benyahia, Otman vs City of New York, et al.","start_date":"2017-08-17","payout_amount":0,"disposition":"","docket":"710977/2017","court":"Supreme Court - Queens","officer_name":"Chin, Andrew J.","summary":"On January 21, 2017, Defendant NYPD Officer BRIAN FAUGHT and SGT.
