A New York Supreme Court judge temporarily halted plans for the shelter on Friday — mere hours before an appeals judge reversed the decision.
On Friday, Richmond County Supreme Court Judge Wayne Ozzi granted the lawmakersprohibiting city and state officials from using the location, setting the next court date for Sept. 6. But before the ink was dry on the order, the city appealed and had it overturned.
When the initial restraining order was issued, Malliotakis took a victory lap on X, the site formerly known as Twitter. But by the evening, the temporary restraining order was vacated in the state supreme court appellate division by Judge Carl Landicino, allowing the migrants to remain, according to Mayor Eric Adams’ office.
