Sheriff Seizes Ambulances In Polyclinic Hospital Dispute
Sheriff Julius Harburger attached the New York Polyclinic Medical School and Hospital on 341 to 351 West Fiftieth Street to satisfy a $13,505.08 judgment held by Nathan J. and Moses M. Packard through attorney Samuel Rosenzweig. Deputies staged a pro forma seizure of ambulances and equipment while hospital officials contest ownership and value, arguing assets are largely physician-owned and exempt. The case centers on contractor Rosoff’s disputed $23,000 claim and potential further action against real property if personal property cannot satisfy the judgment.
