They rapidly approached the plaintiff for allegedly having a beer can in his possession. An officer searched the plaintiff obtrusively, but the beer can was never discovered. The plaintiff was held in custody (with his freedom of movement restricted for approximately half an hour) and dragged into court for approximately seven months. The leading arresting officer did not show up in court for the entire seven months and only appeared after the time for a speedy trial had expired. The leading arresting officer conceded to the judge that he was unable to justify his actions against the plaintiff, and he was also unable to justify the actions of his associates who did nothing to stop the encounter. The judge dismissed the charges. Although not named in the complaint, the officers listed as defendants in the lawsuit docket are Officer Patrick Gordon, Sergeant Robert Hold, and Captain Roshan Patel.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nyed.393783/gov.uscourts.nyed.393783.8.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/4562451/bynum-v-five-john-does-and-one-jane-doe/"},{"name":"Howard, James vs City of New York, et al.","start_date":"2013-09-17","disposition_date":"2014-07-11","payout_amount":8500,"disposition":"Settlement","docket":"13CV05136","court":"U.S. District Court - Eastern District NY","officer_name":"Holt, Robert","summary":"On February 5, 2013, Plaintiff was unlawfully assaulted and arrested by NYPD Officers Douglas Graham, Ronald Stafford, John Balestriere, Robert Holt, and other unindentified officers.  Plaintiff was visiting his friend on the seventh floor of this friend's apartment building, when the officers threw plaintiff against the wall, twisted his arm behind him, then threw him to the ground, where they stromped, beat, and choked plaintiff.  He was then put into handcuffs and dragged him from the building.  While he was walking, one of the officers intentionally tripped plaintiff, and since he was in handcuffs and could not break his fall, he landed directly on his face, causing severe injury.  Plaintiff was then sprayed with mace while handcuffed, taken to a police precinct, and falsely charged with crimes he did not commit.  He was taken to Woodhull Hospital and Long Island College Hospital for treatment of his injuries, including fractured teeth.  He was eventually arraigned in Kings County Criminal Court and sent to Rikers Island, where he remained until February 18, 2013.  All criminal charges against Plaintiff were subsequently dismissed.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nyed.347084/gov.uscourts.nyed.347084.8.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/13050105/howard-v-city-of-new-york/"},{"name":"Callahan, Daniel, et al. vs Children's Services, Administration Of, Nyc, et al.","start_date":"2013-05-20","disposition_date":"2015-03-13","payout_amount":0,"disposition":"Zero Disposition","docket":"13CV02726","court":"U.S. District Court - Eastern District NY","officer_name":"Holt, Robert","summary":"On August 13, 2010, Plaintiff Daniel Callahan was living in a family shelter with  his two children, Nicole and Isis, who had been in his sole custody since July, 2008. Mr. Callahan went to the store, and felt secure leaving his children at home with the door locked, because the building was manned 24 hours a day. He returned to find that the children had been removed by Child Services. Upon reporting to the 79th precinct, he was arrested on arrival and held for several days. On August 16th, an Article 10 petition was filed against Plaintiff and his wife. After 19 months, the petition and all criminal charges were dismissed for failure to establish impairment or imminent risk. For those 19 months his children were removed from his care and put back in their biological mother's custody (who had lost custody in prior family court hearings). Mr. Callahan brought this action against Patricia Smith (Child Services Case Worker), Sgt. Robert Holt (NYPD), Ofc. Robert Holt (NYPD), and Ofc. Jimmy Ponce (NYPD).
