April 5, 2017 Opinion or Order Filing 77 ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION re 65 First MOTION for Attorney Fees filed by David King. As stated on record at the hearing held on April 3, 2017, defendant's objections to the magistrate judge's report and recommendation dated January 12, 2017 are denied. The magistrate judge's recommendation that plaintiff be awarded $194,794 in attorney's fees - $138,500 awarded to Mr. Pauk and $56,294 awarded to Brooklyn Legal Services - is affirmed.

July 25, 2016 Opinion or Order Filing 63 AMENDED MEMORANDUM, ORDER & JUDGMENT. The parties have settled the action. By stipulation, the case was settled on the state contract claim under supplemental jurisdiction (28 U.S.C § 1367) rather than on the federal due process claim. New Yo rk's constitutional and statutory patterns make the benefit application contractual rather than constitutional for purposes of this decision. Under the due process claim, plaintiff might be entitled to pain and suffering and other damages gre atly exceeding his contract damages. To allow such damages, in addition to the loss of income under the contract claim, would unduly burden the city pension system. The matter of interest was decided by stipulation. By stipulation of the parties, the issue of attorneys fees is respectfully referred to the magistrate judge to decide. The case is closed administratively. Ordered by Judge Jack B. Weinstein on 7/25/2016. (Barrett, C)
