Below is the PDF of Corporation Counsel Tim Curtin's rebuttal to the Harris Beach legal opinion. Rochester City Council hired Harris Beach to weigh in on the question of "May the proposed PAB be legally empowered to discipline police officers of the Rochester Police Department?"

The rebuttal was dated May 9, 2018. The Harris Beach opinion was issued on May 3, 2018. Both documents were attached to a statement released by Rochester City Council President Loretta Scott on June 21, 2018.

Mayor - This memorandum addresses the draft legal opinion from Harris Beach PLLC to Council President Scott, dated April 17, 2018, as revised May 3, 2018 (collective, the "Opinion") concerning the proposal for a Police Accountability Board ("PAB") for the City of Rochester. In our view, the Opinion is an incomplete analysis of the topic and we recommend that the Opinion not be relied on to justify creation of the proposed Police Accountability Board.
