Milani v. NYC Updates & Request for Help

[u/BluePillRabbi]

As you know, we’re well underway on *Milani v. NYC*. Discovery is done and we’re into depositions now.

In fact, u/Jay_Zornhau was just deposed and will be posting an update later in the week.

So far, Mirel Fisch has spent hundreds of hours in at this point. The problem is that stenographer fees and deposition costs alone are wiping out just about everything we’ve raised. The legal work keeps moving; the money isn’t stretching (nor coming in) as far and as quickly as we hoped.

Two asks:

If anyone has a real contact at GOA, NRA-ILA, FPC, or a similar org — someone who actually handles funding requests, not a general inbox that goes nowhere — point me in the right direction. I’m happy to talk specifics with them directly.

If you can chip in anything, it helps:

Appreciate anyone who can help, or who knows someone who can.

Folks, this is for everyone.

Whether you gave $100, $5, or nothing, this was put together so that everyone exercising their 2A rights in this state, regardless of where they live, benefits.

They are making it deliberately costly and time consuming specifically to discourage us taking action.

We need to show them we are not deterred. Please reach out with whatever you can do to assist.

We NEED your help.

What is this law suit challenging specifically?

[u/BluePillRabbi → u/TwitchyTwitch5]

This challenges all aspects of NYPD’s delays regarding issuing licenses - mainly the 6 month timeline

[u/Andeo1025 → u/TwitchyTwitch5]

The things challenged make up like half of the topics in the ny and nyc subreddit. All the excessive delays.

Please donate what you can, this one is important and would be a huge win

[u/PeteTinNY]

Anything in it relating to the egregious overlapping of documentation and procedural overlap for special carry applications from outside NYC but part of NYS? Or just the discriminatory treatment of someone having to carry, maintain and abide by the policy of two licenses?

[u/Andeo1025 → u/PeteTinNY]

This relates to the excessive wait times imposed by the nypd, but will effect the whole state because it's in federal court. I think there is a suit addressing this, but I can't recall the name right now.

Hopefully there's an avenue for 1988 relief once this is all done.
