“A judge on Long Island has ordered the Daily News to remove the name of a defendant in a civil lawsuit from our website.” To say that the New York newspaper is being uncooperative with Judge John Galasso’s order is an understatement: their defiant editorial prints the name of defendant Eric Lerner nine times in a single paragraph.

All the filed papers in this case are available here:

The TRO cannot stand for multiple reasons including its overt unconstitutionality.
Additionally, the court is restraining the Daily News, but the plaintiff publicly published the very article it wants to be taken down in the above. See doc. #3 pp 187-188.
Plaintiff apparently does not know of the Streisand effect: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streisand_effect
I have a feeling that the whole Internet is going to know about Eric Lerner and Jssica N. Pelletier’s accusations against him before this is over.
