This case involves a pro se complaint based on 42 USC § 1983 alleging that two named and sixteen (16) unnamed prisoners were held for ten hours handcuffed by Yonkers and Westchester authorities for no valid reason; plaintiffs do not appear to know the names of those directly involved and have instead sued the relevant agencies and supervisory officials.
