MEMORANDUM ORDER
On October 30, 2007, Magistrate Judge Lois Bloom issued a Report and Recommendation ("Report") with respect to the above-referenced case. The Court has reviewed the Report, plaintiff's objections to the Report, and defendant's response to plaintiff's objections.
The Court adopts Magistrate Judge Bloom's Recommendations with the following exceptions. First, the Court finds that plaintiff's state law allegations of discrimination and retaliation based upon events occurring after December 1, 2003, should not be dismissed. Second, the Court grants plaintiff leave to amend his complaint to include state or city law allegations of discrimination and retaliation occurring after December 1, 2003. As the Report recommended, the Court holds that plaintiff's federal retaliation claims occurring after February 5, 2005, survive dismissal as well. A Memorandum of Decision will issue.
SO ORDERED.
