ORDER

HONORABLE ALVIN K. HELLERSTEIN UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE

Your Honor:

I am a Senior Counsel in the New York City Law Department, attorney for defendants Police Officer Richard Evans, Police Officer Anthony Amirally, Police Officer Kevin Treacy, and Police Officer Christopher Boland. Trial is currently scheduled to commence in this matter on July 18, 2022. I write to respectfully inform the Court that one of the individual defendants, Richard Evans, is unavailable that week due to a previously scheduled vacation to Jamaica. See Exhibit A, Client Invoice Copy. This vacation was booked on April 7, 2021 and a deposit has been paid. After conferring with plaintiff and the individual defendants, I respectfully request that trial be adjourned to the week of July 25, 2022.

I thank the Court for its time and attention to this request. 1
