The American Center for Law and Justice asked the New York Supreme Court today to grant an injunction blocking any construction activity at the Ground Zero Mosque site pending resolution of its lawsuit brought against the office of New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, city agencies and the mosque's developers.

ACLJ counsel Brett Joshpe also asked the court to grant discovery in the case, charging the mayor's office with failure to provide all the documents responsive to a Freedom of Information Law request for communications between the mayor,  the developers and the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission.

ACLJ is suing to block construction of the mosque on behalf of client Timothy Brown, a firefighter and 9/11 first responder who lost nearly 100 friends when the World Trade Center towers collapsed after being rammed by airliners hijacked by Islamic terrorists.

"There is a disturbing pattern of stonewalling by the city and mayor's office in providing information about what's clearly been a politically tainted process from day one," said Joshpe. "The limited release of documents by the mayor's office underscores our concerns.
