Morales, Anthony, et al.","county":"['New York (Manhattan)']","summary":"On April 18, 2016, plaintiff and his wife were legally selling artworks on a Times Square sidewalk when the latter was issued a summons by Defendant P.O. Morales, returnable at Criminal Court. Plaintiff pointed out to Morales that their conduct was not illegal and that the summons should instead be returnable at the NYC Environmental Control Board, and Morales brought over Defendant Lieutenant Khan, who ordered Plaintiff to close down his vendor display. When Plaintiff protested that this decision had to be left to a judge, Khan ordered Morales to arrest him. Morales complied, charging Plaintiff with obstruction of governmental administration and disorderly conduct. Morales handcuffed Plaintiff excessively tightly, aggravating a preexisting medical condition to Plaintiff's hand, causing him pain and requiring him to seek medical attention. These charges were dismissed by the DA on December 5, 2016. Morales also issued Plaintiff two summonses for the ECB, which were dismissed at an ECB hearing on April 26, 2016. \n\nOn May 3, 2016, while Plaintiff was selling artworks at the same location, Defendant Sergeant Bergen physically assaulted him, threatened him, and had Defendant P.O.

On June 18, 2016, Defendant P.O. Williams issued Plaintiff a Criminal Court summons, which was dismissed on September 7, 2016.
