In a Feb. 14 ruling, Justice Emily Jane Goodman ordered the NYPD to hand over redacted copies of 1,400 reports on 1,000 shootings since 1997, rejecting the city's argument that the documents were categorically exempt from disclosure under the Freedom of Information Law. The city filed notice of appeal one month later, but dropped the appeal in a stipulation signed on Aug. 17 and filed last week.
