SDNY COURTHOUSE, Feb 2 –   Matthew Charles Belanger sued NYU and NYU Shanghai, alleged discrimination against him by the latter based on having Congenital Talipes Equinovarus, "commonly known as Clubfoot," as his complaint puts it.           

            On February 2, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Magistrate Judge James L. Cott held a proceeding. Inner City Press covered it. 

 NYU's lawyer said that since NYU Shanghai has not been properly served, she was not representing them in the day's proceeding.

Judge Cott gave the plaintiff until April 1 to complete service on Shanghai NYU or see that claim dismissed.

The case is Belanger v. New York University et al., 21-cv-1644 (Woods / Cott)
