Creedon & Gill obtained a landmark ruling in August of 2025 when the Hon. J. Tinari authorized their case against the State of New York to go forward. Creedon & Gill had been hired to challenge a law which would ban New York pet stores from selling puppies or kittens (or even rabbits!) forcing consumers to turn to the shelter systems, overwhelmingly stocked with pit bulls, or gamble with unknown and shady internet providers. Creedon & Gill convinced the Court that there was sufficient preliminary evidence that the supposed purpose of this law, to ban “puppy mills”, was just a sham – that in fact no sick animals were being sold or imported into New York. The question of whether real aim of this law was to advance a political agenda and put private dollars in public coffers will be heard now. It is “vanish-ling rare” to obtain this kind of result.
