Deleon would mouth \"I love you\" to Plaintiff (also an officer) and rub Plaintiff's face and thigh while working at the 52nd Precinct. Plaintiff would always reject Deleon's advances. In December 2014, in retaliation for Plaintiff's numerous refusals to go out on a date, Defendant Sgt. Deleon made Plaintiff rush the processing of an arrest because it was snowing and he didn't want Plaintiff to stay inside the precinct. In February 2015, Defendant Sgt. Deleon inappropriately touched and kissed Plaintiff on her mouth without consent. Upon return to her work after this, Plaintiff was immediately picked on by other Defendant Officers who were standing nearby in full view. In March 2015, Defendant Sgt. Figueroa asked Plaintiff that if Plaintiff ever sued Sgt. Deleon for all the things he's done to her would she split the money she received. Defendant C.O. Hoffman never transferred Defendant Sgt. Deleon so that Plaintiff would not have to experience his sexual harassment and assault. Plaintiff experienced harassment and hostility until her resignation in October 2015.","documents":[{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/5379100-Burns-v-City-Of-New-York-et-al"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/4667536/burns-v-city-of-new-york/"},{"name":"Diaz, Joe vs City of New York, et al.","start_date":"2014-10-01","disposition_date":"2015-05-27","payout_amount":12500,"disposition":"Settlement","docket":"305230/2014","court":"Supreme Court - Bronx","officer_name":"Hoffman, Nilda","documents":[{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/5379223-Diaz-v-City-of-New-York-et-al"}]},{"name":"Dinkins, Asia Sv City of New York, et al.","start_date":"2014-08-18","disposition_date":"2016-02-24","payout_amount":35000,"disposition":"Settlement","docket":"304398/2014","court":"Supreme Court - Bronx","officer_name":"Hoffman, Nilda"},{"name":"Torres, Michael, et al. vs City of New York, et al.","start_date":"2014-08-15","disposition_date":"2015-05-20","payout_amount":62502,"disposition":"Settlement","docket":"14CV06525","court":"U.S. District Court - Southern District NY","officer_name":"Hoffman, Nilda","summary":"On September 26, 2011, Plaintiff Michael Torres was walking to a job interview when Defendant George Goulart exited an unmarked vehicle and approached him.
