SDNY COURTHOUSE, August 25 – Hiram Monserrate in April sued NYC Local Law 15 which barred him, as a felon, from running for office.
On August 25 U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Lewis J. Liman held a proceeding. Inner City Press covered it.
Monserrate's Bronx-based lawyer said his client wanted to withdraw the lawsuit, to avoid a ruling. Judge Liman asked a filing, which was done, a notice of voluntary dismissal under FRCP 41(a). And it's done. There was no mention of Karla Giraldo.
The case was Monserrate v. Board of Elections in the City of New York et al., 21-cv-3830 (Liman)
