She hired a lawyer who is no longer responding. She has 5 or 4 days left to file a claim against NYC for a wrongful arrest. I have no other facts. Anyone with experience in this area?

Re: Abandoned escrow
by Kenneth Cooperstein 09 Apr '26

09 Apr '26

I am the OP. Helpful suggestions were: See if you are within NY Abandoned Property Law § 1315(2), because all claims on the escrow have lapsed. Then turn over to NY Comptroller after last notice to parties. Easiest. Rather than start an interpleader action, start a special proceeding under CPLR 2601 (payment into court) with OSC. Technically, a special proceeding is not authorized for this but it usually works.

Medicare Part D Enrollment
by Fred P. Boy 09 Apr '26

09 Apr '26

A client was enrolled in Cigna's Medicare Part D prescription plan in 2025. Cigna decided to exit this business as of 12/31/2025 and purportedly sent notices of this to all participants. Client denies receiving notice and just found out when trying to fill a prescription that she has no prescription insurance. Medicare has said that a special enrollment period expired 2/28/2026 and that their rules prohibit her from enrolling in a Part D plan until October (effective 1/1/2027), unless there is a 5 star plan, which there is not in Nassau County. She also does not meet the income level which would allow for enrollment. This leaves her without a drug plan until next year. Is anyone aware of any exceptions or other ways that the client can enroll in a plan now? Medicare said their hands are tied. That's possible, but I thought they would have some discretion.

USPS OPM and Federal Employee question
by Susan Marnell 09 Apr '26

09 Apr '26

Hello listmates- Is anyone familiar with obtaining an extension of time to elect the post-divorce survivor retirement annuity with Office of Personnel Management (USPS) for the benefit for an ex-spouse? The postal worker is retired and divorced. The OPM manual states that he has 2 years from the Judgment of Divorce to make the election for his ex-spouse to receive the survivor retirement annuity benefit upon his death. He has not filed yet and time is running out. The matter is currently on appeal. On behalf of his ex-spouse, we have tried contacting OPM at all sorts of addresses and telephone numbers but no answer. We have submitted a Protective Order but there has been no acknowledgement of receipt. I'm thinking maybe an attorney who handles federal employee issues may be familiar with this. Thanks in advance.
