They should be studying the test data. They should be looking at those positives and see where the positives are coming from,” he said.

Monday, June 15, 2020 • BQ Daily Eagle • 3 G uest Editorial Opinions G uest Editorial Opinions Why soldiers might disobey Trump’s orders to occupy cities By Marcus Herdahl and Bradley Jay Strawser THE CONVERSATION President Donald Trump has announced he was considering sending the federal military into the streets of numerous American cities — above and beyond those sent to Washington, D.C. — in an effort to control the protests and violence that have emerged in the wake of the May 25 killing of George Floyd. He has since ordered the military to be with- drawn from the capital, but has not ruled out the possibility of using troops in similar situations in the future. Those actions have led to widespread objec- tions — including an apology from the country’s top military official for taking part in Trump’s walk across Lafayette Square on June 1. Trump’s own former defense secretary, retired Marine General James Mattis, went farther, urging Amer- icans to “reject and hold accountable those in of- fice who would make a mockery of our Consti- tution.” For most Americans, that kind of response could take a variety of forms, including protest- ing, voting and contacting elected representa- tives. But members of the U.S. armed forces have an additional option: They could refuse to follow the orders of their commander-in-chief if they be- lieved those orders were contrary to their oath to the Constitution.

4 • BQ Daily Eagle • Monday, June 15, 2020 Teacher writes children’s book about COVID-19 Pandemic By Jamie DeJesus Brooklyn Daily Eagle She gets high marks for originality. A Southwest Brooklyn educator has found an intriguing way to help kids understand the chang- es brought about by the coronavirus. Kristen Meehan, who teaches at P.S. 264 in Bay Ridge, wrote and illustrated “This is Not For- ever,” a book that conveys the difficulties kids and their families are facing. Meehan, a Bay Ridge native, has taught for 14 years and always had an interest in creating a children’s book. “This started out because a friend of mine sent me a link to a contest they were having to talk about COVID-19,” said Meehan. “I said, ‘You know what, let me see if I can.’” Meehan, who has three kids of her own, was surprised by how easily the book took shape. “It’s all based on real things that happened in our house,” she said. “There are lots of questions they have. Why can’t we see grandma or grand- pa? When can we go back to the playground? When is school going to open again? So I really just based it on real conversations we were hav- ing in our home.” Kristen Meehan with her family and an illustration from her book, “This Is Not Forever.” Photos courtesy of Kristen Meehan Meehan has been teaching nearly 300 kids through remote learning while her own kids strug- “I hear what my daughter is saying about cult it is to do her work and submit it online,” she teach kindergarten through fifth grade, and they gle with not being at school. missing her teachers and friends and how diffi- said. “And then I also hear from my students. I say, ‘We miss you so much. We can’t wait to be back in school.’” The book tackles some tough subjects, includ- ing the challenges faced by essential workers who have to leave kids with grandparents. “Kids have so many questions, and I always turn to books,” said Meehan. “Reading a book to- gether is a really great way to get conversation go- ing and answer questions. Some of these questions are difficult for children to understand, especially the younger ones. “When you see it in a story and it’s told from a 5-year-old’s point of view, with questions the main character is asking, it makes it easier for kids to relate to it,” she said. Meehan is pleased by the response to the book. “The whole thing got noticed once I did the Youtube video [on the book], which I did with the intention of sharing it with my students, and now it has 24,000 views. “I’ve had orders from Hawaii, California, Florida and everywhere in between. “The nicest thing about this is the number of people who reached out to me thanking me for this book. It’s something we’ll have as a memory of this time in history. I tear up every time I read these messages from people,” she added. The response on social media has been pos- itive. “Just read the book to my children tonight,” wrote local resident John Quaglione. “Book is perfect, captures so much of what the kids have Kristen Meehan and her family at a birthday party. experienced during the coronavirus.”

Monday, June 15, 2020 • SECOND DEPARTMENT/Brooklyn/Daily Eagle • 9 JURY VERDICT ON LIABILITY STANDS FOLLOWING APPEAL Appellate Division, Second Department In the Appellate Division, Second Department, Joseph Pizzo appealed from a judgment by Hon. Larry Martin of Kings County Supreme Court, Civil Term. The judgment denied Pizzo’s mo­ tion for judgment on the issue of liability and, ultimately, dismissed the com­ plaint. The complaint arose after Pizzo was traversing a crosswalk using a mo­ bility scooter when the steering column of his scooter became stuck under a storage compartment of a 24­foot­long oil truck operated by Luis Rios and owned by Rios’ employer, Chief Energy Hon. Larry Martin Corp. The storage compartment was lo­ Eagle file photo by Rob Abruzzese cated near the truck’s rear wheel and the scooter was dragged 20 or 25 feet before Pizzo was able to roll it off the truck. Pizzo filed a complaint against Rios and Chief Energy in the Supreme Court in an effort to recover damages for his alleged injuries. The matter proceeded to trial on the issue of liability. Justice Martin denied Pizzo’s motion for judgment on the issue of liability. The jury decided that Rios and Chief Energy were not at fault for the acci­ dent. The Supreme Court denied Pizzo’s motion to set aside the jury verdict as contrary to the weight of the evidence and for a new trial. A judgment was entered in favor of the defendants dismissing the complaint and Pizzo appealed. In the Appellate Division, Sec­ ond Department, the justices affirmed the determination of the Supreme Court. The justices first explained that in order to succeed on a motion for judgment as a matter of law, “a moving party has the burden of showing that there is no rational process by which the jury could find in favor of the nonmoving party and against the moving party.” They noted that to determine if the moving party had met that burden, the court must accept the non­moving party’s evidence as true and award them the benefit of every fa­ vorable inference which can reasonably be drawn from the evi­ dence presented at the trial. The justices explained that the evidence presented at trial demonstrated that Chief Energy’s truck had entered the intersection with a green light in its favor after Rios checked for pedestrians and had nearly completed exiting the intersection when Pizzo drove his mobility scooter off the curb and into the rear portion of the truck. They determined that, under the circumstances, Rios had no ability to avoid contact with Pizzo. Ad­ ditionally, the justices also found that it could not be said that the jury’s determination that the defendants’ weren’t at fault could not have been reached on any fair interpretation of the evidence. Thus, they concluded that the verdict was not contrary to the weight of the evidence. The justices agreed with the Supreme Court’s determination to deny that branch of Pizzo’s motion to set aside the verdict and for a new trial. Pizzo v. Rios, 2018­14962, June 10, 2020 SUMMARY JUDGMENT IN PERSONAL INJURY COMPLAINT REVERSED Appellate Division, Second Department In the Kings County Supreme Court, Civil Term, Steven Weiss filed a complaint in an effort to recover damages for injuries he al­ legedly sustained following a four­vehicle, chain reaction accident. Weiss, who was operating the lead vehicle, included in the com­ plaint Eric Geredien, the owner of the second vehicle; Daniel Paluszek, the operator of the second vehicle; Leo Yanjkilevich, the operator of the third vehicle; and Okuji Arunsi, the operator of the fourth vehicle. After discovery, Yanjkilevich moved for summary judgment dismissing the complaint as asserted against him. There­ after, Geredien and Paluszek moved for the same relief as to them. The Supreme Court granted those branches of the motions. Weiss appealed in the Appellate Division, Second Department, where the order was reversed. In their decision, the justices explained that the defendants failed to establish their entitlement to judgment “by coming forward with evidentiary proof, in admissible form, demonstrating the absence of any triable issue of fact. The justices noted that in support of the respective motions for summary judg­ ment, the moving defendants submitted the deposition testimony of Weiss, Arunsi and Paluszek, each of whom provided varying ac­ counts of the accident. The justices concluded that the evidence raised triable issues of fact as to how the accident occurred and whether Yanjkilevich and Paluszek were at fault in the happening of the accident. As such, the justices determined that the Supreme Court should have denied those branches of the motions that were for summary judgment dismissing the complaint as asserted against Yanjkilevich, Geredien and Paluszek. —Weiss v. Arunsi, 2019‐03343, June 3, 2020
