Injah Tafari is a New York state prison inmate with a long history of criminal convictions and pro se litigation. His record includes a 1989 conviction for first-degree robbery, along with later convictions for assault and criminal mischief in the late 2000s and early 2010s. Separately from his criminal history, Tafari has filed numerous civil lawsuits and Article 78 petitions challenging prison disciplinary decisions and facility policies. One such matter, Injah Tafari v. K. McCarthy, et al., was assigned Case No. 07-CV-4672 and was overseen by Judge Kimba M. Wood of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.
Court records indicate this case was closed on June 19, 2007.
Judge Kimba Maureen Wood has served on the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York for more than three decades, following an earlier career in private legal practice. Born on January 21, 1944, in Port Townsend, Washington, she was nominated to the federal bench by President Ronald Reagan on December 18, 1987, filling the seat previously held by Judge Constance Baker Motley. The United States Senate confirmed her nomination on April 19, 1988, and her commission was issued the following day, on April 20, 1988. Since then, Judge Wood has presided over a wide range of civil and criminal matters in one of the nation’s busiest federal courts.
