Narrative:
BE30 originally ftx. J80. Pia. Cleared aircraft X direct pia to keep him clear of phl departure route and to give a short cut. Aircraft X cleared to 17000 ft and handed off to R73 (132.87). CRJ2 handoff accepted at 13000 ft and climbed to 17000 ft. Handed off to R73 on ptw 320 degree radial, intercept J64 (132.87). CRJ2 kept flying north of course into the path of BE30. 132.87 had a stuck microphone and the controller at R73 was unable to correct CRJ2's flight path until separation was lost.

Title: ZNY CTLR MAKES HDOF TO ADJACENT CTLR WITH DEVELOPING CONFLICTION, RECEIVING CTLR UNABLE TO PROVIDE CORRECTIVE ACTION BECAUSE OF STUCK MIKE.
Narrative: BE30 ORIGINALLY FTX. J80. PIA. CLRED ACFT X DIRECT PIA TO KEEP HIM CLR OF PHL DEP RTE AND TO GIVE A SHORT CUT. ACFT X CLRED TO 17000 FT AND HANDED OFF TO R73 (132.87). CRJ2 HDOF ACCEPTED AT 13000 FT AND CLBED TO 17000 FT. HANDED OFF TO R73 ON PTW 320 DEG RADIAL, INTERCEPT J64 (132.87). CRJ2 KEPT FLYING N OF COURSE INTO THE PATH OF BE30. 132.87 HAD A STUCK MIKE AND THE CTLR AT R73 WAS UNABLE TO CORRECT CRJ2'S FLT PATH UNTIL SEPARATION WAS LOST.
