Malliotakis IDNYC lawsuit goes back to court Jan. 5
Lawmaker seeks to stop destruction of records
Assemblymember Nicole Malliotakis is spending the holiday season preparing for another day in court over her lawsuit to stop the de Blasio administration from destroying records of IDNYC card applications. A judge has set a hearing date of Jan. 5.
Hon. Philip Minardo also urged Mayor Bill de Blasio and City Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito to appear at the Jan. 5 hearing in State Supreme Court on Staten Island to testify in person.
On Wednesday, Malliotakis (R-C-Bay Ridge-Staten Island) and her fellow plaintiff Assemblymember Ron Castorina claimed another victory after the judge refused the city’s request to move the court hearing from Staten Island to Manhattan.
