Before that, though, the Knicks will look to continue progressing towards an even more important goal -- establishing the consistency necessary to contend for the NBA title. The Knicks will attempt to break a win-one-lose-one cycle Sunday night, when they host the New Orleans Pelicans in a nonconference matchup. Both teams were off Saturday after playing road NBA Cup contests Friday. The Knicks overcame a six-point fourth quarter deficit to edge the Charlotte Hornets 99-98 in East Group A action while the struggling Pelicans fell to the Memphis Grizzlies 120-109 in a West Group C game. With the win, the Knicks improved to 3-0 and set up a winner-take-all game for the East Group A's automatic bid to the quarterfinals with the Orlando Magic, who are also unbeaten through three games following Friday's 123-100 victory over the Brooklyn Nets. The Knicks entered Saturday one of four Eastern Conference teams with at least 10 wins this season even though they've won back-to-back games just once outside of a four-game winning streak from Nov. 15-20. For much of Friday afternoon, the Knicks appeared headed for their second two-game losing streak of the season. New York, which suffered a 129-114 loss Wednesday night to the Dallas Mavericks despite the latter being without superstar point guard Luka Doncic (right wrist), trailed the Hornets for more than 38 minutes Friday even though Charlotte star LaMelo Ball sat out with a left calf injury. Jalen Brunson helped the Knicks avoid the upset over the final five minutes, when he scored 11 of his game-high 31 points. The victory allowed New York to finish 3-2 on a road trip that began with four games against Western Conference foes before the Black Friday noon tipoff in North Carolina. "It's a weird schedule," Brunson said. "But there's no complaints and you can't change it, so we've got to go out and find a way. We came out really soft, made some runs and then they made some shots where it looked like they were just going to get away from us. We kept fighting and found a way to get a win." The search for a win has grown increasingly frustrating for the injury-wracked Pelicans, who suffered their seventh straight loss and fell to 1-13 in their last 14 games with Friday's loss. New Orleans, which is last in the Western Conference with a 4-16 record, has played just three games this season with its optimal starting lineup of Brandon Ingram, Herbert Jones, C.J. McCollum, Daniel Theis and Zion Williamson. The quintet has combined to miss 52 games. Ingram (right calf) is day-to-day after missing the last three games while Jones (right shoulder) and Williamson (left hamstring) are out indefinitely. The Pelicans lost by 11 points or fewer for the sixth time in their last 13 defeats Friday when they missed opportunities to creep closer to the Grizzlies in the second half. New Orleans committed turnovers on consecutive trips while down 83-75 late in the third and went five straight possessions without scoring in a 101-89 game shortly before the midway point of the fourth. "We had some chances there where we cut the lead to 10, cut it to eight," Hornets coach Willie Green said. "A few miscues, a few missed shots, some 50/50 balls that we had to come up with that we didn't. Our margin for error is extremely small right now, so you've got to capitalize on those opportunities." --Field Level Media

Nassau County Assault Attorney Russ Kofman Explains How to Get Assault Charges Dismissed 11-21-2024 11:16 PM CET | Politics, Law & Society Press release from: ABNewswire Nassau County assault attorney Russ Kofman ( https://www.lebedinkofman.com/how-to-get-assault-charges-dismissed/ ) of Lebedin Kofman LLP addresses a significant issue in the legal landscape: the dismissal of assault charges. Facing an assault charge in New York carries serious repercussions, from a tarnished reputation to potential jail time and a criminal record. Understanding the legal paths that may lead to a charge dismissal is essential for safeguarding one's future. Russ Kofman, a seasoned Nassau County assault attorney, emphasizes the importance of navigating the legal process with a well-prepared defense. Whether challenging evidence or identifying procedural errors, Kofman notes that effective defense strategies can substantially alter the outcome. "The stakes are high in assault cases. Defending against these charges requires a tailored approach that considers the unique details of each case," explains Kofman. An assault conviction in New York can lead to severe penalties, including imprisonment, significant fines, and a permanent record, which can impact personal and professional opportunities. A Nassau County assault attorney can help navigate these challenges and provide a defense tailored to the specifics of the case. The law distinguishes between different degrees of assault based on injury severity, intent, and the means employed. For example, third-degree assault is categorized as a misdemeanor involving intentional or reckless injury, while first-degree assault, a felony, includes serious harm inflicted with a weapon. As Kofman outlines, an essential element of a successful defense involves understanding the charges and possible penalties. An informed strategy may include questioning the evidence's credibility or highlighting inconsistencies in testimonies. Additionally, Kofman points out that engaging witnesses can be pivotal. Professionals in medicine or psychology can offer insight into injury claims or intent, respectively, potentially challenging the prosecution's assertions. The Nassau County assault attorney further discusses leveraging electronic and surveillance evidence. In many cases, video footage or digital records can provide a detailed account of events, supporting the defense's version or disproving the prosecution's narrative. Utilizing such evidence effectively can be critical in achieving a dismissal. One of the most recognized defenses in New York assault cases is claiming self-defense. Kofman explains that this defense must be convincingly articulated, demonstrating that the defendant's actions were reasonable and proportional to an imminent threat. Mistake of fact and coercion are other potential defense strategies, where it can be shown that the defendant's belief in acting defensively or under threat nullified criminal intent. Inadequate or contradictory evidence is another angle Kofman suggests as a powerful defense. The prosecution bears the burden of proof, and any failure to meet this standard could lead to a case dismissal. False accusations or witness credibility can also be contested to reveal flaws in the case. Demonstrating these weaknesses could significantly influence the judge's or jury's decision. Kofman highlights the nuanced difference between charges being dropped and charges being dismissed. Dropped charges indicate that the prosecution has chosen not to move forward, often due to insufficient evidence or procedural issues. However, a dismissal results from a judicial decision, such as recognizing a lack of probable cause or successful pretrial motions that exclude critical evidence. Dismissals, particularly when issued with prejudice, provide more finality than dropped charges, as they prevent the case from being reopened based on the same grounds. Even after a dismissal, Russ Kofman underscores the importance of seeking to seal the records. Although the charges may be dismissed, arrest records may still be visible on background checks, impacting employment or educational opportunities. Sealing the records can mitigate these issues, enhancing future prospects for the individual involved. Proactive legal measures are essential, especially when dealing with complex cases such as assault. Kofman recommends immediate action to safeguard one's rights and improve the chances of a favorable outcome. Early involvement in the case allows for better management of pretrial opportunities, including plea negotiations or challenging procedural errors. These steps can lead to more advantageous resolutions or full dismissals of the charges. The aftermath of a dismissed assault charge still carries long-term implications, which Kofman emphasizes as critical for individuals to understand. While a court order for dismissal can clear an individual of legal liability, the potential impact on future career or educational paths necessitates further action, such as the sealing of records. Lebedin Kofman LLP, known for its knowledgeable approach to New York law, ensures that clients facing assault charges receive thorough representation. The firm focuses on protecting clients' rights throughout the process, from arrest and interrogation to trial proceedings. Kofman's approach incorporates a deep understanding of legal precedents, strategic defense theories, and the advocacy needed to manage complex litigation successfully. With the risks associated with assault charges, finding the right defense and support is imperative. Kofman's work exemplifies the role of a Nassau County assault attorney who navigates these challenges, seeking dismissals that can help clients move forward with their lives without the shadow of a conviction. For those facing assault charges, immediate action is crucial.

Ranchi/Bokaro: Jairam Mahto , a political greenhorn, who floated a party only a few months ahead of the assembly polls, emerged as one of the giant-killers who not just defeated a sitting female minister Bebi Devi in Dumri, but his party — Jharkhand Loktantrik Krantikari Morcha (JLKM) — also fared second and third spots in majority of the remaining 72 seats it fought on its debut. Even though JLKM only won one seat, the party sufficiently dented the prospects of BJP and Ajsu-P in constituencies with OBC-dominated pockets, paving the way for the INDIA bloc's victory. Jairam shot to fame owing to the series of stirs he led, comprising youths, in the last couple of years against the outgoing govt. In Dumri, while Bebi lost to Jairam by 10,945 votes, her debacle also marks the end of another tiger, the late Jagarnnath Mahto's dominance in this pocket. Devi clinched the seat in a bypoll, riding on the sympathy wave of her husband who died during the Covid-19 pandemic. Three other sitting ministers who lost included Banna Gupta from Jamshedpur (West) where JD(U)'s Saryu Roy won by 7,863 votes. The victory also reinstated Saryu in his traditional seat, which he had left in 2019 to take on another rival — former CM Raghubar Das — emerging as a giant killer then, too.

BJP's ally — Ajsu-P — however, suffered a major dent as out of 10 seats it contested, managed to win only one (Mandu) with a wafer-thin margin of 231 votes. In the Mandu seat, the party's candidate Nirmal Mahto defeated BJP turncoat and veteran politician Jai Prakash Bhai Patel. The biggest blow to Ajsu-P was the party supremo Sudesh Mahto's loss to JMM's Amit Kumar, who thrashed the former by 23,867 votes. For Mahto, who was the deputy CM in the past, it was his worst performance and his party despite fighting as part of the NDA alliance.Despite the mixed reactions to Tariq's performance this season, one thing is certain: the young player has a bright future ahead of him.
