The New York City mayoral administration was fined $5,000 for not showing documents to the court concerning a 2008 crane collapse that killed two men.

The judge penalized the city for not providing documents such as e-mail messages proving that the crane had been inspected to the families of the victims. The families of the victims have filed lawsuits against New York City’s Buildings Department, the crane company and the company’s owners claiming the negligence and corruption were both connected in the collapse of the crane.
