Appeals Court Won't Toss Out NYC Stop-and-Frisk Ruling
Sorry, Bloomberg
A federal appeals court has refused to toss out court rulings finding that New York City carried out its police stop-and-frisk policy in a discriminatory manner.
The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Friday. Last month, an appeals panel had suspended the effects of a lower-court ruling.
The city had argued that the panel's decision to remove federal Judge Shira Scheindlin meant it should also nullify her rulings.

Does that mean the ruling is actually going to be enforced on the NYPD? I'll believe it when I see it.
