For Defendant-Appellee Kathleen A. Rice:         KAREN HUTSON , Deputy County Attorney
                                                 (Lorna B. Goodman, County Attorney, on the
                                                 brief), Nassau County District Attorney,

       On remand from the Supreme Court of the United States.

       ON CONSIDERATION WHEREOF, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED,

AND DECREED that the judgment be VACATED and the cause be REMANDED to the

United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York for further proceedings

consistent with the opinion of the Supreme Court of the United States.

       After our decision in Maloney v. Cuomo, 

(2d Cir. 2009) (per curiam),

plaintiff James M. Maloney petitioned the Supreme Court for a writ of certiorari. The Supreme

Court granted the writ of certiorari, vacated the decision of this Court, and remanded the case for

further consideration in light of McDonald v. Chicago, 561 U.S. __ (June 28, 2010).

       We now VACATE the judgment of the district court and REMAND for further

proceedings consistent with the opinion of the Supreme Court.

                                                 FOR THE COURT:
