Resident Lisa Cinque filed suit after Glen Oaks Village employees entered her residence while she was away, handed her cat to a neighbor, and removed her dog. The dog was transported to an animal shelter as an abandoned pet and was euthanized roughly two months later. Cinque alleged that workers deliberately misled her about the dog's location, preventing her from retrieving it. The Appellate Division affirmed that the submitted body-camera footage, leases, and house rules were insufficient to dismiss the claims before trial.
