SDNY COURTHOUSE, Nov 25 – Andrew Dowd faces trial on November 28, on charges springing from a slip and fall fraud scheme. Inner City Press has been covering the case and will report on the trial.  

 On November 25, 2022, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Sidney H. Stein received an argument to limit cross-examination of a government Witness-12, consistent with limitations he imposed in US v. Bryan Duncan, another case covered by Inner City Press.  

The government wrote, "The Court should preclude cross-examination on the limited fact that Witness-12's 2021 conviction involved the attempted possession of a firearm because it is ... high prejudicial and risks inflaming the jury, consistent with the ruling of the Court in US v. Bryan Duncan, 18-cr-289 (SHW). Watch this site.

 The case is US v. Constantine, et al., 21-cr-530 (Stein).
