On Wednesday, New York State Supreme Court Justice R. Bruce Cozzens issued a temporary restraining order against the Village of Garden City which prohibits the Village from taking any action on its resolution to abolish the jobs of the firefighters, pending a court hearing on August 22nd.

The six residents, Kathleen Joyce, Meagan Male, T.J.

On Wednesday, New York State Supreme Court Justice R. Bruce Cozzens issued a temporary restra...
