Conclusion Meanings:

'Exonerated': or 'Within NYPD Guidelines' - The conduct occurred but did not violate the NYPD's own rules, which often give officers significant discretion.
'Unsubstantiated': or 'Unable to Determine' - The alleged conduct was investigated but could not determine both that the conduct occurred and that it broke the rules.

Forbes, Carl, et al. vs City of New York, et al.
Case # 16CV02751, U.S. District Court - Eastern District NY, June 2, 2016, ended April 9, 2018
Zero Disposition
Complaint, First Amended Complaint
Description: Plaintiffs were property managers for 1690 East 52nd Street, which was vacant at the time of arrest. When they arrived at the property to conduct repairs, the door was locked. They got permission to open the door by prying the key box using a screw driver and/or hammer. While they were inside inspecting the property damage, POs Martin and Morris plus 2 more showed up. Plaintiffs tried to explain to the police officers their job as repairmen and their business on the property to repair water damage. Plaintiffs were all arrested when police disregarded their explanation, charges were brought against them and their cases were dismissed.
