The Second Circuit Court of Appeals has reversed the U-S District Court for the Southern District of New York’s dismissal of a lawsuit that had accused the Town of Clarkstown, Supervisor George Hoehmann and CUPON-Nanuet of thwarting a yeshiva’s contract to buy the Grace Baptist Church and violating the Yeshiva’s religious rights. That’s according to RCBizJournal.com. The $10 million case now goes back to the District Court for further proceedings. RCBiz editor Tina Traster told “The Morning Show” Monday that what was once thought to be a done deal, isn’t over quite yet…
