June 24, 2020
Litigation of counsel Martin Flumenbaum and firm chairman Brad Karp’s latest Second Circuit Review column, “COVID-19 and the New York Democratic Primary,” appeared in the June 24 issue of the New York Law Journal. The authors discuss how the Second Circuit, in Yang v. Kosinski, reaffirmed the importance of First Amendment speech and associational rights over public safety and financial concerns cited by the New York Board of Elections. The ruling signals how federal courts may address potential legal battles as the November general elections approach.
