United States Second Circuit

Following judgment for plaintiff in a breach of contract/employment action, the district court correctly, and constitutionally, held that plaintiff was entitled to post-judgment interest at the rate set forth in 28 U.S.C. section 1961, and not the post-judgment interest rate provided for in New York C.P.L.R. section 5004, notwithstanding that the judgment had been entered in a diversity action and had been docketed by plaintiff in a New York state court.
