A Second Circuit Court of Appeals panel has refused to stay a Brooklyn judge’s order requiring New York state to create at least 4,500 units of “supported housing” for the mentally ill over the next three years. The order, issued in March by Eastern District Judge Nicholas G. Garaufis, followed his ruling in September that the state had violated the Americans with Disabilities Act by segregating the mentally ill in remote, crowded institutional homes (NYLJ, Sept. 9, 2009). In yesterday’s two-paragraph decision denying the stay, the two-judge panel also ordered an expedited appeal schedule. Disability Advocates v. Paterson, 10-235-cv. – Mark Fass
