Cases in the Magistrates Court (118)
Eighty-one of those men and women were arraigned in the Harlem Magistrates court, having been arrested in the 28th Police Precinct below 130th Street. Thirty-two other men and women were arraigned in the Washington Heights court. Two additional men were arraigned in the Night Court during the disorder (a third was held to appear in the Harlem court and was counted among those arraigned there). The final three men were recorded as having been discharged in the 28th Precinct blotter, so should have been arraigned in the Harlem court but did not appear in the court's docket book.
Magistrates in the Harlem and Washington Heights courts adjudicated the prosecutions of fifty-three of the 118 people (45%) arrested during the disorder; in the cases of the remaining sixty-five people they determined that the offense with which twenty were charged was a misdemeanor and sent them for trial in the Court of Special Sessions and determined that the offense with which the other forty-five were charged was a more serious felony offense and sent them to the Grand Jury for a hearing to decide if they should be tried in the Court of General Sessions.
[3 cases discharged, but no info on Court = all in 28th Pct Blotter, so probably in Harlem Ct, but not in that court's docket book]
