Defendants ordered all occupants out of the vehicle and proceeded to search them and the vehicle. Defendants recovered no contraband from Plaintiff. Despite having no probable cause to believe that Plaintiff had committed any crimes or offenses, Defendants placed Plaintiff into handcuffs and under arrest. Defendants used excessive force in effectuating the arrest, namely by placing excessively tight handcuffs and refusing to provide Plaintiff with medical care despite Plaintiff's repeated requests. Plaintiff was subsequently transported to the police precinct where Defendants falsely informed employees of the New York District Attorney’s Office that they had observed Plaintiff commit various crimes and offenses when in fact Defendants did not observe Plaintiff violate any laws or ordinances. After attending all required Court appearances, all charges against Plaintiff were dismissed on or about November 22, 2021. As a result of Defendant's unlawful actions, Plaintiff suffered physical injuries, emotional pain and suffering, reputational damage, and loss of income.","documents":[{"url":"https://web.archive.org/web/20240627063503/https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/ViewDocument?docIndex=QJP_PLUS_Q4TVuwI7kJPpC8jX4A==","type":"complaint"}]},{"name":"Cavender, Shawn vs City of Ny, et al.","start_date":"2021-10-28","disposition_date":"2022-11-02","payout_amount":60000,"disposition":"Settlement","docket":"21CV07290","court":"U.S. District Court - Southern District NY","summary":"On June 2, 2020, plaintiff was lawfully and peacefully attending a protest of police misconduct in the wake of the killing of George Floyd.  An unidentified uniformed police officer shoved a protestor without provocation, causing a stampede of protestors and NYPD members in riot gear in plaintiff's direction.  Plaintiff ran to try to escape the oncoming rush but stopped to help a person that had fallen on the ground.  As plaintiff was helping this person, plaintiff encountered P.O. Michael Laborde in riot gear so plaintiff extended his arms over his head with his hands open in a \"hands up\" gesture.  P.O. Laborde nevertheless proceeded to violently throw plaintiff to the ground and began punching, kicking and hitting plaintiff with his police baton.  P.O. Sean Degnan, Sgt. Andrew Ghibaudi, acting in concert with P.O. Laborde, all started hitting plaintiff's head, shoulders, back, arms and abdomen with their fists, boots, and police batons.  They also forcefully placed their knees against plaintiff's back, keeping him pinned to the ground, and forcibly applied zip-ties to plaintiff's hands behind his back.  Lt. Lawrence Wang observed the police officers repeatedly and violently strike plaintiff but did nothing to stop it.  Plaintiff was placed under arrest, forcibly detained, and imprisoned, which Lt. Wang authorized.  During plaintiff's detention, P.O. Degnan further tightened the flex cuffs when plaintiff asked him to loosen them due to substantial pain.  The officers initiated a criminal prosecution based on false accusations.  On October 14, 2020, all criminal charges against plaintiff were dismissed.","documents":[{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nysd.565800/gov.uscourts.nysd.565800.17.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/60324680/cavender-v-city-of-new-york/"}],"payroll":{"salary":"157537","regular":"155647","overtime":"16219","other":"20780","total":"192646"},"id":"NGP","url":"https://www.50-a.org/officer/NGP"}
