In the Supreme court on March 4, 1936 (7)
The largest award, to Irving Stetkin, did appear in those stories, and in the New York Times, New York Post, New York Herald Tribune and New York Amsterdam News. That Stetkin's claim involved damage to two stores was mentioned in all those stories other than the Pittsburgh Courier. The jury awarded him $550 according to the NYT, NYHT, $700 according to the NYP and AN, and $500 according to the PC. Stetkin's award was contrasted with the smallest award in some of those stories, which was to Michael D'Agostino, of $70 for two stores according to the NYT and NYHT, and of $25 for one store according to NYP and AN.
What the store owners had claimed was mention only in the NYT and NYHT, as $20,000 in total, with Afro saying Stetkin has claimed a total of $3000 for his two stores and the NYT and NYHT $2000. If the total was accurate, the awards were for a significantly lower proportion of the claims than in the verdicts against Feinstein and Rosenberg. = Stetkin and total [refer to earlier stories on their claims] = that information made the verdicts less of a loss for the city than just the awards
They were all represented by Barney Rosenstein, the lawyer at the center of newspaper stories about filing claims in April and July 1935.
City's arguments = NB compare what is riot argument of city with Shalleck's discussion in Feinstein - test case = could refer to these arguments, or trial inthis court
+ police testimony
+ 15 pending cases, $1 million
= stories refer to Feinstein and Rosenberg verdicts but not to Shalleck's decision on motion
