Judges said yadda, yadda, yadda to the plaintiff in a dismissed lawsuit filed against sitcom superstar Jerry Seinfeld over the character of "George Costanza."

State Supreme Court judges ruled that Queens College alum Michael Costanza’s privacy
rights were not violated when producers of the "Seinfeld" show created the character of "George."

According to court documents, the 43-year-old Costanza was seeking $100 million in damages claiming that "Seinfeld" producers had impeded upon his privacy rights by using his "name, likeness and persona.’’

Costanza contended that he met Seinfeld while attending Queens College in Flushing and that the "George" character had similar traits and even held some of the same jobs as he did.

Judges said that the creators of "Seinfeld" never used Costanza’s "name, portrait or picture,’’ except in one episode where he appeared as an actor.

City cops requesting paperwork to sign-off the force are being turned away from 1 Police Plaza, which is being besieged by pension-seekers.

Police in Queens who trekked to NYPD headquarters to file for retirement told QConf that employees took forms they had filled out in advance, while advising them to, "call in a few weeks" to get pension info that required any research – regardless of how large or small the request.

Used to be cops seeking retirement could go to headquarters for a breakdown of pension benefits they were eligible to collect, cops told us. Not so now, the cops said. "We were told that there are so many cops filing for retirement that processing is weeks – maybe a month or two – backlogged.

Remember – you read it first on the Confidential page back in ‘98 that the current cop exodus was expected and that the city and the NYPD were considering offering cops an alternative to retirement in the form of a "put your pension on hold while you collect wages" program.

Insiders told us some of the cops – most of whom are "bosses" – got a bit irate, storming out of the pension office.

"They can tell if we’re a minute late to start a tour of duty," one angry sergeant said. "But they can’t tell us what our pension is? Bull——."

• HONEST ABE? Multi-millionaire and Riker’s Island inmate Abe Hirschfeld was spied during an interview sitting adjacent to Craig Godineaux, one of the accused in the Flushing Wendy’s massacre that took place last summer.

While talking to the Daily News reporter, Hirschfeld said he neither knew the nearby inmate nor what he was being jailed for.

Hirschfeld was convicted last June of hiring a hit man to murder his longtime business associate Stanley Stahl.
