Question

I have neck and back pain due a jammed lobby door. I hurt myself all over again by trying to get out the jammed door that has been malfunctioning for months

Answer

You can file a claim with NYCHA (this needs to be done within 90 days of the injury-causing event). Take a photo of the jammed door and include it. If it's medically-documented in your records that you were injured in this way, you could have a good case. Without (new) surgery, though, your damages will be limited.
