The chapter captures the initiation of the transition to public testimony during the council meeting. The speaker at T1243 announces the beginning of public testimony and specifies that only testimony on topic will be allowed. This is followed by procedural instructions for signing up with the sergeant at arms at the back of the room and the naming of the first few individuals scheduled to testify, starting with Sergio DePaolo from the New York County Defender Service.
