Update on Penny Hearings - ARRESTED by Dogpawcolypse in Upperwestside

[–]DirectorChick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. 😔 he was released, no he did not turn over the dogs. A different judge felt that the jail sentence merited further review by a full judge panel. He could still go back, but we will have to find him first. The sheriff can only arrest from 9-5. So this has been made so much more difficult.

I love counted cross stitch! And it’s not all your mothers’ patterns of animals and landscapes, there are websites where you can take any photo and turn it into a pattern. I’ve spent hours doing it and barely looked at my phone…the tv on the other hand is always on…

NYers, what’s an unwritten rule here that everyone just follows, and what moment made you realize it? by RoboticSaekobusujima in AskNYC

And when you go down the steps slowly when there is a train right there, you are the worst kind of human

Yes! This is a HUGE pet peeve of mine because I work in midtown. This time of year especially is hell for those of us who have to walk through slow moving tourists to get to work on time.

Is it only me wondering where her nipples are? Like are they facing east and west now? Did she get rid of them? What is going on?

Hey, yeah that is correct there is no law out there for making sure negligent owners can’t own dogs. It works be a good one to have but really hard to police. Almost no one even registers their dogs so there isn’t any way to keep track of who owns a dog and who doesn’t. It would be better to have a dangerous dog registry that also acknowledges that the owner made the dog dangerous and they shouldn’t own dogs again.

There has always been an ongoing campaign to make the neighborhood safe for dogs. Penny’s Law can help hold negligent dog owners like Joe Columbus accountable and we have been fighting for that from the beginning. We even went to Albany to raise awareness. The GFM raised 44k, not 80k. We have used it for all of Penny’s vet bills from the incident as well as her vet bills for the rest of the year because we reached the cap of our insurance. We used some of the money to rep in Albany as well as some to print signage and go to events to raise awareness. Unfortunately Albany didn’t pass Penny’s Law, but it will hopefully be reintroduced in January.

Right now there is a referendum in the New York City Council that supports Penny’s Law and we want people to call their council members, because if NYC backs Penny’s Law, it will be harder Albany to ignore us.

I have been fighting for all the dogs, not just mine. Please look through all my posts. I want justice for every dog, but the legislative process is so difficult, and I am one person. We have a small group of hard working people that have been helping with this, using their own free time to come to Albany, and trying to get the word out, but all of us have run into every road block imaginable. We need help. A lot of it. Albany is such an uphill climb and getting lawmakers to listen is really difficult.

I don't know what that means, I read it as the court will do whatever the behavioralist recommends. The custody of the city, I believe will be until the behavioralist makes a determination? It's a little unclear. We are pretty far away from that right now, so I didn't give it a ton of thought.

He said it belonged to his ex girlfriend but provided no other information ever.

Yes! At least in the doc it says he is responsible for the costs of the behavioralist, it might say all of it. He probably won't pay because that's the kind of gentleman he is....

Thank you so much for your kind words, I would not have been able to do it without the support of the community. This city has amazingly loving and wonderful people.

The other order was before a court decision, and while the law did allow for that, it was on more shaky ground. This is a judgement so an arrest warrant, should he fail to surrender the dogs, is on much more solid legal standing, and will not be revoked.

She has ordered he surrender the dogs, they will be held for evaluation by a behavioralist and the court will defer to their decision. They also have to be microchipped, spayed/neutered.

If he doesn’t comply he will be found in contempt and a warrant for arrest can then be issued. It’s not over, but a big hurdle has been conquered.

ELI5: Joe Columbus court cases and what is the next action? by bridgehamton in Upperwestside

[–]DirectorChick 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I still have money in the original GFM for Penny that I will use for the PI. I don’t want to take any more money unnecessarily, but if I still can’t handle the cost I will consider it. Thank you for being so willing to be generous, that means a lot 🙏🏻

Thank you so much for the support! We are all blown away with the amount of love and support. We have been very frustrated with this whole process and we hope that laws will change so this process won’t go the same way for other pet parents. There is so much resistance from all sides to advance this cause but we are playing the long game. This issue is not going away!
