BY JEFFERSON SIEGEL  |  Tribeca resident Louise Neathway, 36, was arraigned in Manhattan Criminal Court on Thursday night Feb. 2. Neathway was arrested a day earlier in front of her Tribeca building and is alleged to have stalked Brian Cashman, the Yankees general manager.

Neathway, a British citizen and unemployed medical saleswoman, has a history of harassment, including having been charged in 2010 with harassing Thomas Walsh, an East Village resident.

Judge Abraham Clott set her bail at $200,000 cash or $300,000 bond. As her mother sat in the back of the courtroom, Neathway was remanded to Rikers Island. The judge issued orders of protection for Cashman and his wife. A day after Neathway’s court appearance, Cashman’s wife filed for divorce.

Neathway appeared again in court on Tuesday, the deadline for her to be indicted by a grand jury. However, her lawyers waived the deadline for two weeks so her legal team could better determine the facts of the case and how to proceed.
