Trial Court Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK wn SAMIRA SIERRA et al., : Plaintiffs, ORDER : 20 Civ. 10291 (CM) (GWG) -V.- CITY OF NEW YORK et al., Defendants. wn GABRIEL W. GORENSTEIN, UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE Oral argument on the pending application for inclusion of a class member (Docket # 208) will take place on Monday, February 26, 2024, at 11:00 a.m. in Courtroom 519, United States Courthouse, 40 Centre Street, New York, New York. If there are counsel available who were involved in the negotiation of the settlement, their presence at the oral argument may assist the Court in interpreting the parties’ intention as to the phrase “subject to force by police officers.”

See, e.g. King v. Allied Vision, Ltd., 65 F.3d 1051, 1059 (2d Cir. 1995) (a court may look to “circumstances surrounding the formation” of a settlement agreement in determining the meaning of a term in the agreement).

SO ORDERED.
