New York Court of Appeals
Thomas Cary, Respondent v. Hazel M. Koerner
December 16, 1910200 N.Y. 253
Summary
The Court of Appeals affirmed the Appellate Division, holding that the six‑year and ten‑year statutes of limitations do not bar a statutory suit under chapter 384 of the Laws of 1909 because the cause of action accrued only on the date the statute became effective, May 18, 1909. Consequently the plaintiff’s action filed on June 21, 1909 was timely.
