BRONXVILLE, N.Y., April 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Legal-Bay, the pre settlement funding company, announced today that the city of New York has agreed to pay out $28+ million to the family of Nicholas Feliciano, a Riker's Island inmate who was left severely brain damaged after a botched suicide attempt. The incident caused charges to be brought against four of the correctional officers on duty who allegedly stood by as spectators, doing nothing to intervene—for over seven minutes—as the man hung from the ceiling of his cell.

Key Points: 
  • In spite of his documented history of mental illness, he was placed in general population at Riker's.
  • According to court transcripts, the guards saw what he was trying to do and did nothing to stop it.
  • Feliciano was only saved because a jail captain caught the event on a surveillance camera and intervened.
  • Their loan for settlement funding programs are designed to provide immediate cash in advance of a plaintiff's anticipated monetary award.
