NEWARK, N.J. (AP) - A homeless man who sued and received $230,000 after being ejected from a library in northern New Jersey is suing NJ Transit for kicking him and other homeless people out of train stations.
Richard Kreimer, 55, filed a federal civil rights lawsuit Monday seeking at least $5 million in damages against the transit agency, the city of Summit, nine police officers and several other defendants, claiming he and other homeless people have been unlawfully thrown out of train stations since August.
He also wants a federal judge to decide whether the stations are public or private property, and whether people who are not ticketed passengers have the right to be in them.
