NYPD Must Show Personnel Records
PBA president Patrick J. Lynch reacts to Manhattan Supreme Court
decision on release of personnel records.
“The NYPD’s blatant attempt to prevent police officers
from pursing better paying police jobs was defeated today in a
decision by the honorable Supreme Court Justice Sheila Abdus-Salaam.
Justice Abdus-Salaam granted an injunction that will require the
NYPD to provide personnel information to the Port Authority Police
Department for cops who are seeking to join that force where they
will earn $30,000 more a year. This decision, which is rooted
firmly in law and common sense, should send a message to the NYPD
that this is a bad policy that they should rescind immediately
and permanently abandon for the future.”
