SDNY COURTHOUSE, June 9 – In The Bronx on March 13, 2020 two minors gained access to the Spuyten Duyvil Bridge and then drowned. Now the railroad is being sued.

  On June 9, 2023, U.S. District Court of for the Southern District Magistrate Judge Stewart D. Aaron held a proceeding. Inner City Press covered it.  

As issue was how to get photographs of the site.

Judge Aaron said they are relevant - he noted that he used to live on the Hudson Line - and even that he could if appropriate take a phone call on any live discovery dispute of the camera angles.

He indicated an expert might not be necessary on this.  

 The case is Flores et al v. The City Of New York , et al., 21-cv-5861 (Abrams / Aaron)
