Southern District Judge Robert Sweet has approved a $75 million class-action settlement that accused New York City police officers of writing at least 900,000 summonses that were later dismissed as insufficient.
“This civil rights class action is the paradigm of change and progress achievable in a society undergirded by the rule of law,” Sweet said Monday in Stinson v. City of New York, 10 Civ. 4228.
